Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Children and teens often express distress in ways that can be confusing or concerning. I support young people in understanding their emotions, building resilience, and developing healthy coping skills. I also work collaboratively with caregivers to strengthen connection and communication, creating an environment where growth and healing can happen both in and outside of therapy.

Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
During my training in graduate school, I specialized in Child and Adolescent Development. I have worked with children of all ages and worked as the Director of Counseling for 3 years at a private high school in Marin County. I have always found working with children and teenagers especially gratifying. This is a particularly challenging time to be a young person. There are so many issues that young people face - fears about climate change, politics, the economy. Social media and digital addiction only make things worse. There is an epidemic of anxiety and depression among young people and now more than ever do I feel the desire to help the youth of today develop the resilience to face life's challenges. My extensive experiences working with children and adolescents, as well as my experiences as the parent of two young adults allows me to make deep and meaningful connections with my young clients.

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.

Welcome! You might be feeling disconnected from your family, friends, children, job, or even the world. I'm Dr. Cristal Lopez, and I believe that we all have powerful strengths. Together, we will explore yours to help you unlock your full potential, connect authentically with others, and show up as your true self. My training at top U.S. children's hospitals, including Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California Pacific Medical Center, Texas Children’s Hospital, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has provided me with over 6 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young and mid-life adults, and families.
For my younger clients, I use behavioral and play therapy techniques, while also supporting parents and families to foster healthy connections. With adolescents and adults, I draw on strength-based, humanistic, and relational principles to guide our work together.
Beyond traditional mental health concerns, I specialize and publish work in: coping with chronic illnesses, career-related issues (burnout, work-life balance), trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and stress related to first-responder families.

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.
