Child/Teen
Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
We want parents to know that behavioral problems are relational problems. Anytime we work with a child, we work with the parent because anything that goes from the parent to the child is way more meaningful and effective than anything that goes from us to your child, because you have the permanent relationship. While we work with the child we look at ways in which parents can strengthen their relational bonds with their child and crystalize their child's trust and respect for them.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Childhood and adolescence can be a confusing and overwhelming time for many, and it can be full of transitions, competing stressors, and uncertainty regarding who they are or where they belong. In our sessions, I strive to co-create a safe space where they can talk through the things that are most on their mind. By following their pace and providing support and guidance along the way, we can work to lessen the overwhelming impact of emotions, untangle confusing and painful beliefs, and find ways to navigate the situations in which they feel stuck.

Rachel Thomasian

Children and teens often show us they’re struggling through behavior, mood changes, or withdrawal. I offer a safe, supportive environment where young clients can process feelings, develop emotional tools, and build confidence. My approach helps them strengthen self-awareness, resilience, and skills for managing challenges at school, home, and in relationships.

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.
