Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with children and adolescents. Most children need to be seen in-person, but many teens are comfortable doing therapy virtually and this can be an effective treatment mode for them. With children and younger teens, parent consultations are usually part of the treatment so that we all work together as a "team" to help your child with whatever issues they are struggling. Older teens often do better when the therapy is more confidential, so that they can feel comfortable being open with me. I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you and your child. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your child, your family, and reasons for seeking therapy. I then meet with your child once or twice to get a sense of the issues with which they are struggling and determine if it appears therapy can be useful. At that point I give parents some feedback and we plan together from there. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that kids and parents would like to see.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Childhood and adolescence can be times of tremendous growth — but also stress, confusion, and emotional challenges. I specialize in helping children and teens navigate issues such as anxiety, depression, school difficulties, peer and family conflict, self-esteem concerns, and adjustment to change.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and developmentally attuned. I work to create a safe, trusting space where young people can express themselves freely and begin to understand their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Sessions often include age-appropriate cognitive-behavioral techniques (CBT), emotional regulation skills, and guided problem-solving — all tailored to the child’s developmental level and individual needs.
Equally important, I work closely with parents and caregivers to strengthen communication and consistency at home. By helping families learn practical tools for support and structure, therapy becomes not just a place for the child to grow, but a foundation for the whole family to thrive.
Whether a child is struggling with school stress, social anxiety, mood swings, or family changes, my goal is to help them build resilience, confidence, and emotional understanding that will serve them for life.

Emily Wilson
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I provide dedicated support for children and adolescents who are facing emotional, social, or behavioral challenges—whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, difficulties with self-esteem, or struggles in family and peer relationships. My approach is compassionate and developmentally informed: I work alongside young clients and their families to help them understand what’s going on, build healthier ways of coping, and restore balance within the home and school environments.
Through a blend of age-appropriate methods (such as play-based interventions, storytelling, structured therapy, and family sessions) I help young people express their feelings safely, develop emotional regulation skills, and improve their interactions with others. My goal is to empower them (and you as a parent/guardian) to move beyond survival mode, build resilience, and step into a more connected, confident future.

Lora Proia/ Centered Village LLC Counseling & Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LCPC, LPC
Adolescent issues are unique and challenging at times. I help adolescents and their families navigate through those tough times. Having over 25 years of experience working with adolescents and families through middle school teaching, high school counseling, professional counseling and being a parent of two grown children, I am well versed in adolescent behaviors and issues. Teens do not show depression the same way as adults, and do not respond to therapy the same as adults and I am good at helping teens identify issues and provide coping strategies to apply to their daily lives as well as teaching alternate ways to build relationships and express needs. Helping parents navigate through those teen years is another way that I can help by providing strategies on how to communicate with their teen effectively, guide their child, and help with relationship building with each other.

Amy Guido
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Perhaps your child seems to be struggling in ways that have you concerned. As a parent, we often want the change more than the child does, which can be a block to progress. If your child or other family members won't attend, beginning with change in even one family member can change the dynamic for the better. I often work predominantly or only with the parents so that the most motivated person is skilled in ways that help stuck patterns change for the better, leading to a calmer, more connected homelife.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have had the privilege to work with children and adolescents for many years in the school, outpatient, residential and inpatient setting. I enjoy helping children to identify and build on their strengths and learn skills at a young age so they can feel more confident about who they are and grow to be the best version of themself. Integral to working with children or adolescents is involving parents so they can learn how to work together to create a harmonious home environment and guide their children or adolescent through difficult situations. I also may collaborate with schools so that interventions can be implemented that focus on their strengths.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Your child can worry and have anxiety over seemingly simple things or things they may not verbalize, leaving it difficult for you to know what to say or do to help them.
Children have an especially hard time identifying their emotions while trying to navigate through life. Heck, it’s even hard for ME to grasp what I’m sometimes feeling! How can we expect a youngster to know what’s going on and how to deal?
When kids don’t have a context to explore their feelings, they tend to lash out with anger, rage, down in the dirt-hurt, isolation, or other concerning behaviors.
Do you know how often we hear the word “tantrum”?
