Child/Teen
Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I use a strength-based approach to support children and adolescents in therapy, by focusing on their inherent strengths, passions and potential rather than solely addressing problems or deficits. My therapeutic approach emphasizes identifying and harnessing each young person’s unique abilities, talents, and resilience in order to foster personal growth and improve problem-solving skills. Understanding the current landscape and challenges faced by youth today—such as academic pressures, social media influences and evolving family dynamics—is crucial for tailoring interventions that are relevant and impactful. I intentionally integrate the child’s or adolescent’s imagination and creativity into therapy as well, in order to create a therapeutic process that is interesting, engaging and ultimately empowering. Working with children and adolescents also requires a multidisciplinary approach which can involve parents, extended family, teachers, school counselors and pediatricans in the process. Parents understand the child’s home environment and family dynamics, teachers have insights into the child’s academic and social performance at school, and pediatricians offer medical, historical and developmental perspectives. Combining these viewpoints provides a more comprehensive understanding of the child’s situation and provides information that guides the therapeutic process and ensures greater treatment efficacy across the child or adolecent's environments.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with children, adolescents and young adults primarily working to overcome their significant anxiety, fears that are holding them back, OCD, and panic symptoms. I have specialized training in exposure and response prevention (ERP) that tends to be the gold standard in treating OCD. I can offer support for the family and the child/ teen struggling through their anxiety. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! My online clients are focused primarily on late preteens and older due to the difficulties in engagement with elementary aged youth (in person sessions offered in the Charleston, SC area). Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Most symptoms actually do come from childhood as cliche as that may sound. Our brain pathways develop the most from conception to age 6. We often times don't even have the memories for how our brain pathways developed. Even if you don't remember, we have proven methods to help you work through body memories as well as be able to see brain pathways. If you can understand your brain pathways, you can break the patterns once and for all.

Jordan Dye - Prepared Acceptance
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMT
Navigating child or adolescent issues requires a balanced approach that supports the young person while empowering the entire family unit. Drawing on my professional experience working within the school system, I understand the academic and social pressures students face today, as well as the systemic hurdles that parents often encounter when seeking support. I view therapy as a team effort, working collaboratively with both the child and the parents to ensure the "whole team" is equipped with the tools needed for success. Whether we are addressing behavioral struggles, school-based anxiety, or the impact of a high-stress household, our goal is to build practical skills and foster open communication that strengthens the family bond and helps your child thrive.
