Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
One of my specialities is working with young athletes to perform at their best. I offer Mental Skills Training and an array of Sports Psychology techniques to improve confidence, concentration and calmness. My background as a tennis teaching professional and having played varsity tennis in high school, college and beyond give me a unique understanding of the pressures young athletes face whether it is making the local high team or striving to be a professional on tour or playing in the major leagues. As a sports psychology consultant and mental skills coach, I can help young athletes to perform at their best.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I specialize in working with children and teens whose lives have been shaped by medical challenges, trauma, or neurodivergence. This may include serious or chronic illness, complex diagnoses, hospitalizations, accidents, frightening events, sexual abuse, or sensory and regulation differences that make school, friendships, or family life harder to navigate. Some young people I see are carrying several of these layers. Others are coping with one significant experience, such as PTSD after a specific event or the emotional impact of a new diagnosis.
Many of the children and teens I work with are carrying more than anyone realizes. On the outside, they may look like the good kid, the brave patient, or the one who holds everything together. Inside, they can feel scared, angry, overwhelmed, numb, or very alone.
My work is not general child therapy. I focus on how stress, trauma, medical experiences, and neurodivergence live in a young person’s body, emotions, and relationships. I also work closely with parents so you feel less isolated and more supported in responding to what your child is going through.
