Child or Adolescent Issues
Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Children and adolescents often express what they’re struggling with through behavior rather than words. I work with young clients and their families to understand the emotional and relational dynamics underlying these behaviors. Therapy focuses on improving communication, emotional understanding, and creating a more supportive environment at home.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Amita Khare
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Sometimes children and families face challenging problems. Maybe it's a separation or divorce of parents, death in the family, or moving. I have worked with children, teens, and families from diverse backgrounds for the last 17 years. Depending on the client, I use play therapy, art, and cognitive-behavioral approaches to help children and teens be successful in managing anxiety, emotional outbursts, anger management, and defiance, as well as trauma experiences.
