Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I have a particular interest in working with children and adolescents as they navigate the often complex and evolving process of identity development. Adolescence is a time of profound change—emotionally, socially, and psychologically—and many young people struggle to make sense of who they are and where they belong.
I bring a specialized focus to working with adoptees and donor-conceived children and teens, who may face unique questions around identity, origin, and connection. These experiences can shape how young people understand themselves and their relationships in ways that are not always visible from the outside.
My approach is thoughtful, developmentally informed, and grounded in creating a space where young people feel safe to explore these questions openly. I also work closely with parents to help them better understand and support their child’s experience, strengthening communication and connection within the family as a whole.

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.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I specialize in working with children and teens whose lives have been shaped by medical challenges, trauma, or neurodivergence. This may include serious or chronic illness, complex diagnoses, hospitalizations, accidents, frightening events, sexual abuse, or sensory and regulation differences that make school, friendships, or family life harder to navigate. Some young people I see are carrying several of these layers. Others are coping with one significant experience, such as PTSD after a specific event or the emotional impact of a new diagnosis.
Many of the children and teens I work with are carrying more than anyone realizes. On the outside, they may look like the good kid, the brave patient, or the one who holds everything together. Inside, they can feel scared, angry, overwhelmed, numb, or very alone.
My work is not general child therapy. I focus on how stress, trauma, medical experiences, and neurodivergence live in a young person’s body, emotions, and relationships. I also work closely with parents so you feel less isolated and more supported in responding to what your child is going through.

Seaford Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, M.Ed, LCMHC
I LOVE working with teenagers! Four out of five of my kids are adolescents, so I like to think I understand this population fairly well. For whatever reason, I find I can easily connect with teens; and once we connect and trust one another, we are able to work through many of the struggles they face. Teens today are often misunderstood and underestimated. The truth of the matter is that we've built this world for them that is 24/7 stressful and anxiety-producing. We've built tiny computers they carry in their pockets that are forcing them to constantly be on-call, on-screen, and on fire! Then we have the audacity to blame them for their anxiety, depression, poor focus, loneliness, and addictions that WE created! Don't tell my kids, but we are the ones who should be grounded...

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Being a teenager right now is a lot. Between school pressure, social dynamics, family expectations, identity development, and the constant presence of social media, many teens are navigating more than they’re given credit for. What gets labeled as “attitude” or “withdrawal” is often stress, overwhelm, or trying to make sense of themselves in a world that can feel intense and unforgiving. And for many teens—especially those holding marginalized identities—there are added layers of cultural expectations, discrimination, and pressure to navigate systems that don’t always feel safe or affirming.
At Nour Counseling, we work with teens in a way that feels real, not forced or overly clinical. We take time to build trust, understand what’s actually going on beneath the surface, and create space where they can speak openly without feeling judged or dismissed. We help teens develop practical tools for managing emotions, navigating relationships, setting boundaries, and building a stronger sense of self. We also collaborate thoughtfully with caregivers when appropriate, while still respecting the teen’s voice and autonomy. Our goal is to support teens in feeling more grounded, more understood, and better equipped to move through this stage of life with clarity and support.

W. Katherine Redd
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Is your teen having difficulty adjusting to the aches and pains of growing up? Are they exploring who they are or pushing the boundaries as they do? Or are they struggling with transitions? Each changing situation may have an impact, whether it is moving to a new location, the beginning of a new school year, or shifting from one classroom to the next. Whatever the change, it is especially hard for children and adolescents to navigate alone.
