I’m desperately seeking someone to discuss with / someone to guide me in parenting my teenager who is veering toward a dangerous path . Family is yehsivish /balebatish . I’m looking for somone who works with this population . Either in NY or available by zoom. I’m at the end of my rope and terrified of making bad parenting mistake.

Maybe Ruchi Koval?

Have you heard of Twisted Parenting- Avi Fishoff?

I’m sorry for what you’re going through and wish you a lot of Hatzlacha

You could try Rabbi Dov Brezak (author of Feldheims Chinuch In Turbulent Times)

He was a principal (maybe he still is? Im not sure) and he definitely deals with crises, at risk etc. He makes appointments with people one on one - I'm just not sure if it's just for people who are in his live weekly "Chinuch Lifelines" calls/webinars (they are relatively very affordable), but you can inquire. Hatzlacha:

Twisted Parenting is very good too, Rabbi Avi Fishoff. It's geared more specifically to very high level, no longer at risk but rather in serious situation youth. I'm not super familiar, but unlike Rabbi Brezak for instance who works with "regular" chinuch as well those in crisis, Rabbi Fishoff, as far as I know, but "don't quote me", for anyone reading this check it out yourself for accuracy if you're interested - but while he has loads of free material online any parent can certainly check out, I think he only works very selectively, with very few families at a time, & only in what be calls "Stage 4", when its unfortunately extremely serious (think homeless, very heavy drugs etc)

Nesivos has parent support groups for this exactly. They have a group in either Brooklyn/Flatbush area
You can reach out to nesivos or I can try to get you more info.
