Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My majority of my clinical experience and practice is working with adolescents, young adults and college students. I love working with adolescents as they have a unique and creative perspective on life and what they are struggling about. Adolescents often do not feel heard or seen and my work includes understanding of what they are trying to express to those within their life. Much of my clinical work allows for adolescents to gain some understanding of their situation and how to communicate with their parents and those within their circle of support.

Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Something changed and you are not sure when. Your kid used to tell you things. Now the door closes, the answers get shorter, and the arguments start over nothing. I work with tweens and teens between 11 and 18, and I spend just as much time helping parents shift how conversations go at home. My background as a school-based therapist means I have seen how these patterns look in the middle of a school day, not only from the outside, and that shapes how I read what a family brings me.

Foothills Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMFT, AMFT, ACSW
Our therapists love working with teenagers. Do you have a moody teenager? Bring them to us! We recognize that working with teenagers requires honesty, openness, and a willingness to laugh at the newest meme. We are willing to meet your kid where they are at and provide a space where they can feel safe sharing the struggles of being a teenager in the world today. We are also committed to working with the parents and require once a month parenting sessions so you don't feel like the work with your teenager is being done in a vacuum.

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.
