Lora Proia/ Centered Village LLC Counseling & Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LCPC, LPC
Adolescent issues are unique and challenging at times. I help adolescents and their families navigate through those tough times. Having over 25 years of experience working with adolescents and families through middle school teaching, high school counseling, professional counseling and being a parent of two grown children, I am well versed in adolescent behaviors and issues. Teens do not show depression the same way as adults, and do not respond to therapy the same as adults and I am good at helping teens identify issues and provide coping strategies to apply to their daily lives as well as teaching alternate ways to build relationships and express needs. Helping parents navigate through those teen years is another way that I can help by providing strategies on how to communicate with their teen effectively, guide their child, and help with relationship building with each other.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Focusing on late adolescents, around high school age, Michael's work in this area, like that with young adults, attunes to the renegotiation of the parent-child relationship that brings the adolescent gradually greater independence and autonomy. With over 35 years of clinical experience, Michael recognizes that this is a subtle, complicated and at times fraught change, He works to partner adolescents as they zero in on who they see themselves as being (identity) and how they see themselves as relating to others -- family, friends and romantic partners (intimacy). The process of becoming more independent ultimately involves change for parents and siblings as well as the adolescent. Thus, when indicated, Michael also offers family therapy or consultation with parents.
