Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
For many children and adolescents , wanting to feel like they're being heard and listened to is critical to changing negative behaviors. Often-times, despite their parent's best intentions, a third party is needed. Being an objective voice for these kids is often all that is needed. I'm able to help them bridge the communication gap they are feeling with their parents and sometimes, that is enough for significant change to start.

Alex Stachowski
Counselor/Therapist, APC, NCC, MA
The teenage years can bring intense emotions, pressure to fit in, perfectionism, identity concerns, and feelings of being misunderstood or alone. I work with teens experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional distress, and self-harm concerns. My approach focuses on building genuine connection while helping teens better understand themselves, develop resilience, and navigate challenges in healthier ways.
