Child or Adolescent Issues
Josh Thames
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, NCC
You know your child is struggling, but they can't or won't talk to you about it. You want to help but don't know what's really going on and you're worried about them. You also know they don't want to talk to anyone about their issues. I was a teacher and a coach at the middle and high school levels for 15 years before becoming a therapist. I understand that most kids feel defensive and frustrated at adults. Before we discuss anything of importance, they'll need to trust me. We can work together to help them through this difficult moment. You don't have to do this on your own.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Alex Stachowski
Counselor/Therapist, APC, NCC, MA
Children and adolescents often feel pressure to meet expectations long before they have the tools to manage it. I support teens who struggle with academic stress, identity development, peer relationships, or emotional overwhelm. Therapy provides a steady space to build resilience, self-awareness, and coping skills — helping young people develop confidence rooted in who they are, not just how they perform.
