Before he entered the foster care system, DJ suffered child abuse, domestic abuse, and emotional trauma. Today, DJ uses his experiences to help parents better connect with their teenagers. DJ specializes in helping parents bridge the communication gap between them and their child to ensure that their child has room to be the best version of themself.
