Kelsey Bass
Marriage and Family Therapist, MAS, LMFT
Preteens and teens face unique challenges, from navigating peer pressure and academic stress to exploring their identities and managing family dynamics. I strive to provide a safe and supportive space for young individuals to express their feelings, build self-esteem, and develop healthy coping skills. By establishing a strong therapeutic relationship, we can address issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional regulation, empowering preteens and teens to navigate this critical stage of life with confidence and resilience. My goal is to help them understand their emotions, improve their relationships, and thrive during these transformative years.

Kathy Anderson
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LAMFT
Couple relationships have a very unique way of surfacing childhood issues. This is largely related to how human beings form their relational framework in childhood, which tends to also resurface within intimate relationships later. If you are noticing that you feel very powerless, helpless, withdrawn, or out of control in your relationship, you may be experiencing some resurfacing of childhood issues that are impacting your interactions with your partner. Couple therapy can be helpful to feel grounded, supported, and present in your relationship. This can largely be done through reflection, psychoeducation, processing (and reprocessing), and psychodrama. Couple relationships are a very powerful container for healing when it comes to childhood wounding. I can help you and your partner work towards establishing safety and trust, as well as building guardrails for how to show up well for each other in the midst of childhood pain. Let's find a way for your relationship to facilitate healing from your childhood instead of repeating it.
