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.

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!
