Child/Teen
Dr. Brittany Mathews
Psychologist, PhD, LP, APIT
As a clinical child and adolescent psychologist, I have a deep understanding of normative development throughout childhood and adolescence, as well as the ability to recognize when emotional or behavioral concerns begin to interfere with a young person’s well-being. I specialize in addressing a broad range of emotional and behavioral challenges, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and social struggles. With a compassionate, evidence-based approach, I work closely with both children and adolescents to help them navigate the complexities of growing up, while also supporting parents in managing their child’s evolving needs. Using tailored therapeutic techniques such as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and compassionate support, I help young people build emotional resilience, self-awareness, and effective coping skills. My goal is to create a safe and empowering environment where children and adolescents can develop the tools they need to thrive now and in the future.
