Janee Young
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I bring a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for working with children and adolescents. Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to the well-being of young minds, specializing in those aged 9 and up. My approach is infused with warmth and expertise, and I utilize play therapy techniques to create a safe and engaging space for children facing issues such as bullying, anxiety, depression, school performance, and family dynamics.

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.

Danielle Greenspan, LMFT, LPCC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 104395, LPCC 4889
I have worked with children and adolescents of all ages in different capacities for the past 17 years. I work with children as young as in infancy using my training and certification in FirstPlay Somatic Storytelling. I am trained and certified in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy to build and grow the relationships between parents and their toddlers or young children. I love working with elementary aged children in play therapy using their special interests to build a rapport and get creative with my interventions. I love working with adolescents through the challenges and angst of being so close to adulthood but not yet having the independence they crave.

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.

Visalia is the county seat of Tulare County in California's Central Valley, a region that is both one of the world's most productive agricultural areas and one of California's most underserved communities for mental health care, with a majority Latino population whose access to Spanish-language therapy is severely limited relative to need. The agricultural economy creates specific mental health challenges around seasonal employment, farmworker labor conditions, heat-related stress, and the immigration anxieties common across the San Joaquin Valley. Kaweah Health provides the primary hospital-based behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves the more affluent parts of the population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, agricultural and economic stress, immigration and family separation trauma, and the significant barriers to care created by language access issues and a shortage of Spanish-speaking therapists in a region where the majority of residents speak Spanish at home.
