Esther Park
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
Children and adolescents are both simpler and more complex than adults may expect. Oftentimes words fail, but actions and the use of play or creativity can be powerful tools of self-expression. I want to offer a safe space for you or your child/teen to discover new and meaningful ways to express themselves, process difficult experiences, and develop healthier coping skills.

Rose Hanna Counseling Services
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
Kids and teens don't always have the words for what they're feeling — but that doesn't mean they're not feeling it. Our therapists create a warm, age-appropriate space where children and adolescents can process big emotions, build coping skills, and feel truly heard. We also work closely with parents, because supporting a struggling kid is a team effort.

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Children and adolescents may express emotional distress through anxiety, sadness, anger, withdrawal, low self-esteem, school difficulties, or changes in behavior. I provide a warm, age-appropriate space where young people can feel safe, heard, and understood without judgment.
Therapy helps them develop emotional awareness, healthier coping skills, confidence, communication, and resilience. When appropriate, I collaborate with parents and caregivers to improve understanding and create a supportive home environment while respecting the young person’s privacy, developmental needs, and growing independence.

Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Adolescence is a critical developmental period marked by identity formation, increasing independence, and complex emotional growth. My work recognizes that teenagers exist within family systems and broader social contexts that profoundly influence their well-being. I believe effective treatment must address not only the individual adolescent's thoughts and behaviors, but also the family patterns and relationships that shape their experiences. I provide a safe place where children and adolescence feel comfortable to connect
