Child or Adolescent Issues
Amy Faragher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, NCC
Prior to becoming a counselor, I worked as a middle school teacher. I enjoy working with clients ages 10 and older. My work with younger clients often involves helping improve self-esteem and establish a strong sense of self.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Rachel Webster
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Working with children and adolescents is a fascinating and rewarding interest of mine. It often involves an assessment of how the young person’s stressors and coping skills are working together and identifying additional strategies for meeting the life challenges facing the young person. Family work is often an important part of the therapeutic process.

Child or Adolescent Issues
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.
