Child/Teen
Esther Park
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
Children and adolescents are both simpler and more complex than adults may expect. Oftentimes words fail, but actions and the use of play or creativity can be powerful tools of self-expression. I want to offer a safe space for you or your child/teen to discover new and meaningful ways to express themselves, process difficult experiences, and develop healthier coping skills.

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Children and adolescents may express emotional distress through anxiety, sadness, anger, withdrawal, low self-esteem, school difficulties, or changes in behavior. I provide a warm, age-appropriate space where young people can feel safe, heard, and understood without judgment.
Therapy helps them develop emotional awareness, healthier coping skills, confidence, communication, and resilience. When appropriate, I collaborate with parents and caregivers to improve understanding and create a supportive home environment while respecting the young person’s privacy, developmental needs, and growing independence.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Children and adolescents often express what they’re struggling with through behavior rather than words. I work with young clients and their families to understand the emotional and relational dynamics underlying these behaviors. Therapy focuses on improving communication, emotional understanding, and creating a more supportive environment at home.

Be Authentic Family Therapy Services, Inc. Michele Putini, Director
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
When something happens in a family, sometimes children and teens don't know how to manage it. They may not know how to express what they feel and may act out, behave in ways that are not typical or withdraw or isolate themselves. Children's first language is play so we utilize play therapy, art therapy techniques and sand tray therapy to help them to express themselves in a safe enviornment. We believe through the connection of the safe therapeutic relationship, children, teens and families can heal from the challenges and move towards wellness, growth and discovery of their most authentic self. If your child is experiencing a challenge then your whole family is having a challenge and we can help you process those feelings, discover new coping skills to manage symptoms and move towards the healing we all desire. We are here to help guide you. We all desire to be seen and heard and treated with respect. We honor all of our clients whether they are 4 or 94 years old. We can help you discover what you need. Make an appointment so we can begin the healing.
