Dr. Fernando Castrillon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Work with children or adolescents is significantly different than therapeutic work with adults. My extensive training and experience with children and teenagers allow me to work effectively and with care, staying attuned to the singularities of each child's world and subjectivity.

KT Glusac
Counselor/Therapist, AMFT, APCC
Working with children outdoors allows their natural play, curiosity, and resilience to emerge. In eco-therapy sessions, children engage with the natural world as a safe space to express feelings, develop emotional awareness, and build confidence. I also collaborate with parents to strengthen connection and communication at home.

Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
Being a teen is tough. Balancing the demands of school, having a social life, figuring out who you are or want to become, not to mention renegotiating your role and responsibilities at home, add up to a lot of stress. Maybe you don't know? Maybe you do, and it feels overwhelming. Maybe you are relying in substances or choices that help lessen the pain but are hurting you in the long run. Fold in existing mental health challenges like anxiety, depression and ADHD, and it all becomes too much.
It's hard not to compare yourself to your friends, classmates, or people online. Everyone seems to have their act together. They have the perfect body, all the cool stuff, or know what they want. Maybe they are fortunate in some areas in their life, but that doesn't mean they've got life figured out. What matters is how you feel about YOU.
If any of this lands, you don't have to go it alone. Therapy is a safe space to talk about what's not working and get help. I'm not there to judge you (I've been there) or there to tell you what to do. I am there to listen and support you in finding a way through. I value honesty and trust; what is discussed in therapy stays in therapy. I'm not there to report back to your parents, guardians, or anyone else.

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.

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Kids and teens aren’t built to sit still and talk about their feelings, so I bring in art, movement, and other expressive activities to help them open up. Using the whole body makes therapy more fun and also more effective. Creative work gives young people a powerful way to understand themselves and grow.
