Tandra Froehlich Childress
Marriage and Family Therapist, ATR, LMFT
I have worked with children and teens in multiple settings (mother, mentor, therapist). I am in awe of what strong young adults our youth are developing into. In these positions, I have noticed the many challenges they face. The teen and preteen years are confusing. Youth must figure out who they are, where they belong, and what they want to be. In addition to this feat, youth are challenged with a competitive academic environment and the constant watchful eye of social media. This can create intense stress and feelings that nobody is real. It is no wonder then, that anxiety and depression are increasing. As a therapist, I aide youth in discovering their passions, increasing self-esteem, calming anxieties, and finding their unique voice. Modern day society weighs heavy on our youth. With an understanding heart and open mind it is my passion to help carry that weight.

Nicole Bermensolo
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
If being a parent in 2022 is difficult, being a kid in 2022 is near impossible. I am passionate about working with children and adolescents in close collaboration with parents/care-givers to assist in a myriad of issues, including anxiety, depression, school avoidance, bullying, self-esteem, divorce, co-parenting, and trauma. I utilize a unique combination of interactive play therapy, relational therapy, and EMDR (if appropriate) in order to give your child the most effective therapy experience.

KT Glusac
Counselor/Therapist, AMFT, APCC
Working with children outdoors allows their natural play, curiosity, and resilience to emerge. In eco-therapy sessions, children engage with the natural world as a safe space to express feelings, develop emotional awareness, and build confidence. I also collaborate with parents to strengthen connection and communication at home.
