Rory Valentine Diller
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
Being a young person in a world run by adults can often feel really hard! I have worked with children and youth for over 10 years around issues related to self-esteem, social anxiety, bullying, child abuse, domestic violence, sexual abuse, LGBTQ identities, alcohol and substance use, suicidal thoughts, and self-injuring behaviors. I use a full spectrum of creative mediums, work with therapy horses, and themes from pop culture, movies, music, TV, and comics in sessions to help younger folks feel comfortable and engaged in treatment.

S. Abigail McCarrel : Welcome Home Family Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, DCSW
I have been working with children and adolescents for over thirty years. In that time, I have evolved in my practice to work only with children and young adolescents in the context of family therapy. Since I am a family therapist, I see the family as a system with the parents at the top of the hierarchy. They are the leaders and the ones with the power and authority in the family. So, to help the complex and challenging kiddos in my practice, I provide a combination of parent and family therapy. I work intensely with parents to understand their children and see beyond the behaviors. As the parents begin to change, so does the child and the family as a whole.

Adolescence is a major life transition we go through and sets us up for the formative 20s. Our goal is to help make this transition into young adulthood intentional and purposeful so that you can move your life in the direction you want to go in.

Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Having worked for a number for years as a school counselor and youth pastor I understand the unique challenges kids/teens face as well as what parents go through trying to help them. Every child is unique and needs an approach that is tailored uniquely to them and the family. In our work together, I help clients cultivate not only practical skills but identity level understandings that allow kids/teens to increase in confidence and self-esteem, conflict management, and their ability to process traumatic events (bullying, divorce, etc).
