Be Authentic Family Therapy Services, Inc. Michele Putini, Director
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
When something happens in a family, sometimes children and teens don't know how to manage it. They may not know how to express what they feel and may act out, behave in ways that are not typical or withdraw or isolate themselves. Children's first language is play so we utilize play therapy, art therapy techniques and sand tray therapy to help them to express themselves in a safe enviornment. We believe through the connection of the safe therapeutic relationship, children, teens and families can heal from the challenges and move towards wellness, growth and discovery of their most authentic self. If your child is experiencing a challenge then your whole family is having a challenge and we can help you process those feelings, discover new coping skills to manage symptoms and move towards the healing we all desire. We are here to help guide you. We all desire to be seen and heard and treated with respect. We honor all of our clients whether they are 4 or 94 years old. We can help you discover what you need. Make an appointment so we can begin the healing.

Relationship Therapy Center - serving individuals and couples in CA online and in the Sacramento area
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Certified Gottman Therapist
Play is the natural language of children so when they can play with a trained therapist who can do therapy at the same time, it's the best of both worlds. Your child wants to come and they are getting the treatment that they need at the same time.
With teens, it can take time to develop rapport and help them open up. We have an amazing training program for all of the therapists who specialize in working with teens so they can create a safe environment for teens who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, peer relationship struggles and all the life transitions they are going through.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I have been working with children and adolescents for over 20 years. Children and teens experience mental health symptoms differently then adults, so it is critical your therapist is able to differentiate age/developmentally-appropriate behaviors from mental health symptoms. I offer structured play, sand-tray, and expressive arts to create space and containment for children and teens to explore and process emotions, challenges, and parts of themselves, as well as to help them learn skills to increase regulation, reduce symptoms, and improve functioning.
