Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Adolescence is a critical developmental period marked by identity formation, increasing independence, and complex emotional growth. My work recognizes that teenagers exist within family systems and broader social contexts that profoundly influence their well-being. I believe effective treatment must address not only the individual adolescent's thoughts and behaviors, but also the family patterns and relationships that shape their experiences. I provide a safe place where children and adolescence feel comfortable to connect

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.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
For many children and adolescents , wanting to feel like they're being heard and listened to is critical to changing negative behaviors. Often-times, despite their parent's best intentions, a third party is needed. Being an objective voice for these kids is often all that is needed. I'm able to help them bridge the communication gap they are feeling with their parents and sometimes, that is enough for significant change to start.

Using approaches grounded in play therapy, attachment theory, and evidence-based interventions, I create a safe and supportive space where young people can express themselves, build emotional awareness, and develop coping skills. I also partner closely with parents to better understand their child's needs, strengthen connection, and support growth both inside and outside of therapy.

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.

Tandra Froehlich Childress
Marriage and Family Therapist, ATR, LMFT
I have worked with children and teens in multiple settings (mother, mentor, therapist). I am in awe of what strong young adults our youth are developing into. In these positions, I have noticed the many challenges they face. The teen and preteen years are confusing. Youth must figure out who they are, where they belong, and what they want to be. In addition to this feat, youth are challenged with a competitive academic environment and the constant watchful eye of social media. This can create intense stress and feelings that nobody is real. It is no wonder then, that anxiety and depression are increasing. As a therapist, I aide youth in discovering their passions, increasing self-esteem, calming anxieties, and finding their unique voice. Modern day society weighs heavy on our youth. With an understanding heart and open mind it is my passion to help carry that weight.

Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Your child is the most precious vessel in your life, and finding a trusted therapist to address your child’s emotional challenges is one of the toughest decisions a parent can face. Engaging with children in a safe, supportive way has been a lifelong passion of mine. I was blessed to be raised in a household that was joyous, accepting, filled with music, and also filled with children. My mother was a music therapist for children with special needs and disabilities, and observing her connect through music to deeply impaired youth had a profound impact on my life. Her example taught me to understand and engage children at their level, and I have taken those lessons into my therapeutic process, whether it be working closely with troubled children and teens throughout the Los Angeles County Unified Schools district, or engaging with children in my private practice.
My approach to child therapy is two-pronged. First, I seek to engage the child as an active participant in the therapeutic process. Deploying imagination, play, art, music, breathing, dancing, and energy work, the purpose is to build deep trust and communication at a level the child can embrace and that feels authentic to the child’s experience. Since children clearly do not have the communication skills of adults, building this connectivity, sense of safety, and environment of trust is vital. This is often accomplished through transitional objects, such as toys, dolls, and musical instruments. This signals to the child that our communication will take place at a level which is understandable to them, as well as comfortable and trusting. Once this attachment has taken place, it then becomes possible to infuse and suggest different thought and behavior patterns that address the child’s underlying issues.
Building this foundation of trust with the child is vital, but it is often just the first step. The second element of my child therapy practice is to fully enlist the family in understanding, supporting, and resolving the child’s emotional challenges. Clearly, the family and parenting dynamic is critical to the child’s behavior. Yet truly understanding that family dynamic is a sensitive process, especially given the enormous pressure parents are under in today’s world to be, simply put, perfect. My approach with parents is to, first, actively defuse this “perfection pressure.” No parent is perfect, and a key step is to uncover and explore the internal parenting dynamic absent the external pressures parents face today. Another key step is active “re-parenting” where I work closely with parents to identify different parenting techniques that will help support the child’s therapeutic process.
A holistic approach to child and family therapy is critical to long term healing and opening new, positive behaviors. Crafting a trusting, safe, and child-centric environment is a lifelong passion and a key part of my overall practice.
