With over 30 years' experience in helping families understand and address emotional and behavioral problems with their children and teens, I have had many successes in helping resolve negative behaviors, difficult relationships, and even substance abuse issues. I also provide assessment of emotional and learning issues, liaison with schools to provide accommodations, communicate with physicians to begin, adjust or modify medication regimens, and provide suggestions regarding other services that might make a big difference in the child's emotional and/or academic well-being.

Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I LOVE playing and no one is better at playing than kids! I have been honored to witness children courageously bear their souls, face their hard life situations, fears, and shadow self (shame/embarrassment/guilt) and therefore bring freedom and creative, helpful ways of living into their lives. Obviously, play therapy looks different online, but with a few toys on each end and a child who feels safe and seen...watch out, they will create, play and process through what they need to without conscious knowledge or effort of doing so. I am just thankful to be along for the ride!
Most of my talk therapy will come with their parents who I like to work with more consistently than with the child. Helping parents figure out how they are reacting to their children and their children's thoughts, feelings, sensations, urges, and behaviors allow parents to create more comfortable and helpful ways of parenting and interacting with the little human being in their care.
Adolescent human beings are also a joy to connect with.

Navigating childhood and adolescence brings distinct developmental and emotional milestones. Utilizing evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and play-informed strategies, I help young people build essential coping skills for anxiety, depression, ADHD, social and academic stress. Recognizing that lasting change thrives on collaboration, I partner closely with parents and families to create supportive home systems, improve behavioral regulation, and foster healthier familial communication.

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.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Focusing on late adolescents, around high school age, Michael's work in this area, like that with young adults, attunes to the renegotiation of the parent-child relationship that brings the adolescent gradually greater independence and autonomy. With over 35 years of clinical experience, Michael recognizes that this is a subtle, complicated and at times fraught change, He works to partner adolescents as they zero in on who they see themselves as being (identity) and how they see themselves as relating to others -- family, friends and romantic partners (intimacy). The process of becoming more independent ultimately involves change for parents and siblings as well as the adolescent. Thus, when indicated, Michael also offers family therapy or consultation with parents.
