Children and teens often show us they’re struggling through behavior, mood changes, or withdrawal.

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.

Brooke Taylor
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Adolescence is a real developmental upheaval, not just a phase to get through. Identity is under construction, friendships carry enormous weight, the relationship with parents is being renegotiated whether anyone agreed to it or not, and all of it is happening in a body and brain that are still changing. Most teens handle a lot of this on their own. Sometimes they need more support than the people around them can give.
I work with teens on the ordinary-but-hard parts of this stage: friendship conflict and social pressure, questions about who they are and where they belong, school stress and perfectionism, self-esteem, screens and comparison, conflict at home, first relationships, and the general sense of being off without knowing why.
A lot of what makes this work is having one adult who isn't grading them, parenting them, or trying to fix them. Therapy gives your teen a space that's theirs, where they can think out loud and be met with curiosity instead of correction. That often changes things at home too, not because we're working on you, but because a teen who feels less alone tends to have more room for everyone around them.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
We want parents to know that behavioral problems are relational problems. Anytime we work with a child, we work with the parent because anything that goes from the parent to the child is way more meaningful and effective than anything that goes from us to your child, because you have the permanent relationship. While we work with the child we look at ways in which parents can strengthen their relational bonds with their child and crystalize their child's trust and respect for them.
