Rose Hanna Counseling Services
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
Kids and teens don't always have the words for what they're feeling — but that doesn't mean they're not feeling it. Our therapists create a warm, age-appropriate space where children and adolescents can process big emotions, build coping skills, and feel truly heard. We also work closely with parents, because supporting a struggling kid is a team effort.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I work with children and adolescents who are navigating emotional, behavioral, and social challenges. Many young people come to therapy struggling with anxiety, big feelings, school stress, friendship difficulties, or challenges related to attention, learning, or self-esteem. My approach focuses on helping children better understand their emotions, build regulation skills, and develop confidence in themselves and their relationships.
I use a relational, developmentally informed approach that integrates play, conversation, and nervous system awareness to meet children where they are. I also work closely with parents to support the family system as a whole, helping caregivers better understand their child’s emotional and developmental needs while building practical tools that strengthen connection and communication at home.

Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Adolescence is a critical developmental period marked by identity formation, increasing independence, and complex emotional growth. My work recognizes that teenagers exist within family systems and broader social contexts that profoundly influence their well-being. I believe effective treatment must address not only the individual adolescent's thoughts and behaviors, but also the family patterns and relationships that shape their experiences. I provide a safe place where children and adolescence feel comfortable to connect

I have experience working with middle schoolers and up. I find art therapy to be a really good fit for my middle school and high school clients. Often they have tried traditional talk therapy and need something different to feel comfortable to open up.
