Váthos Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, ALC, NCC, MA
The teen years are full of change and challenges, often bringing stress, identity concerns, or emotional struggles. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where teens can process their feelings, build self-confidence, and develop healthy coping skills. My goal is to support adolescents as they navigate life’s complexities and strengthen their sense of self.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Childhood and adolescence can be a confusing and overwhelming time for many, and it can be full of transitions, competing stressors, and uncertainty regarding who they are or where they belong. In our sessions, I strive to co-create a safe space where they can talk through the things that are most on their mind. By following their pace and providing support and guidance along the way, we can work to lessen the overwhelming impact of emotions, untangle confusing and painful beliefs, and find ways to navigate the situations in which they feel stuck.

Dr. Brittany Mathews
Psychologist, PhD, LP, APIT
As a clinical child and adolescent psychologist, I have a deep understanding of normative development throughout childhood and adolescence, as well as the ability to recognize when emotional or behavioral concerns begin to interfere with a young person’s well-being. I specialize in addressing a broad range of emotional and behavioral challenges, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and social struggles. With a compassionate, evidence-based approach, I work closely with both children and adolescents to help them navigate the complexities of growing up, while also supporting parents in managing their child’s evolving needs. Using tailored therapeutic techniques such as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and compassionate support, I help young people build emotional resilience, self-awareness, and effective coping skills. My goal is to create a safe and empowering environment where children and adolescents can develop the tools they need to thrive now and in the future.
