Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Your child can worry and have anxiety over seemingly simple things or things they may not verbalize, leaving it difficult for you to know what to say or do to help them.
Children have an especially hard time identifying their emotions while trying to navigate through life. Heck, it’s even hard for ME to grasp what I’m sometimes feeling! How can we expect a youngster to know what’s going on and how to deal?
When kids don’t have a context to explore their feelings, they tend to lash out with anger, rage, down in the dirt-hurt, isolation, or other concerning behaviors.
Do you know how often we hear the word “tantrum”?

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, DBH, LCSW
At Pathways To Connection, we work with children and adolescents by providing a safe, supportive space for young individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We help them develop healthy coping mechanisms, build emotional resilience, and address challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficulties with self-esteem. By engaging in therapy, children and adolescents can learn effective communication skills, manage interpersonal conflicts, and navigate the complexities of growing up. We also support parents by offering guidance on how to nurture your child's emotional development and handle difficult situations at home or school.

Dr. Indra Gonzalez
Psychologist, PsyD
I am passionate about working with children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, and behavioral concerns. I understand that patients and their families have unique experiences, values and identities. I seek to incorporate these individualities and considerations in treatment. I am certified in EMDR and provide developmentally appropriate modifications based on age, needs and neurodiversity when working with children and adolescents. I will often also integrate child centered play therapy, expressive arts, CBT, and DBT-informed modalities depending on the goals in treatment.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in working with children and teens through a developmental and relational lens, recognizing that each child's behavior is a form of communication. 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.
