Chananya Abraham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MS, LPC
I work with parents and families to strengthen connection, communication, and mutual understanding between parents and their children and adolescents. We focus on identifying underlying emotional and behavioral patterns, improving healthy boundaries, and developing practical strategies that support both structure and empathy in the home. My goal is to help parents feel more confident in their role while helping children and teens feel understood, supported, and capable of navigating their developmental and life challenges.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have had the privilege to work with children and adolescents for many years in the school, outpatient, residential and inpatient setting. I enjoy helping children to identify and build on their strengths and learn skills at a young age so they can feel more confident about who they are and grow to be the best version of themself. Integral to working with children or adolescents is involving parents so they can learn how to work together to create a harmonious home environment and guide their children or adolescent through difficult situations. I also may collaborate with schools so that interventions can be implemented that focus on their strengths.
