Best Therapies, Inc.
Therapist
As adults, we underestimate the level of stress our young ones go through daily. Whether it’s overwhelming amounts of schoolwork, bullies that make them anxious or depressed in their academic environment, or a broken home that leaves them feeling fearful or unloved, children experience traumatic emotions just as adults do.
Unlike adults, children and teens may not have the tools, outlet, or language skills to voice their troubles or break down what they’re feeling. That’s where child counseling comes in. Our experienced specialists work with children and teens dealing with a mental illness or emotional strain to help them regain confidence and happiness.

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.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Adolescence is the first time a person is asked to assemble a self in real time, in public, with an audience that is merciless. The pressure is not imagined. The stakes are not small. What looks from the outside like defiance or withdrawal or apathy is almost always a person in the middle of figuring out which parts of themselves are allowed to exist. I work with adolescents not by trying to correct their behavior but by taking seriously the problem they are trying to solve.
