Santa Barbara, California therapist: Allie Michie, MS, marriage and family therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Allie Michie, MS

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
Teens are navigating a lot, school, friendships, relationships, family, identity, and a felt pressure to have it all figured out before they even know who they are. I work with teens in a space that's honest, warm, and completely judgment-free. No agenda, just genuine curiosity about who they are and where they want to go.

Lafayette, California therapist: Nes Pinar Psychotherapy, marriage and family therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

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.
