Eve Palmatier
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have spent the last 7 years working with children and families. It's a really rewarding age group to support. This is a time when children are building their sense of self, figuring out how they want to engage with their world, and building an understanding of how society works. When I'm able to connect with someone so early on in their life, and provide them with the skills to understand and address whatever mental health struggle they're dealing with--it can change the trajectory of their lives. Therapy for this age group is so incredibly powerful, especially when parents and families are pulled in to reinforce the work being done in sessions. It is a rare chance to get ahead of difficulties before they become deep seated and difficult to uproot. I often feel that I'm trying to help my young clients figure out who they want to be, and support them in growing into the healthiest and strongest version of themselves.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in working with teens, my approach to treatment is rooted in empathy, respect, and understanding of the unique developmental challenges adolescents face. I create a safe and supportive environment where teens feel heard and validated, fostering trust and open communication. Through a combination of evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing, I address a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, peer relationships, identity exploration, and academic stress. I collaborate closely with teens to set achievable goals, develop coping skills, and navigate life transitions effectively. Additionally, I recognize the importance of involving parents or guardians in the therapeutic process to provide support and facilitate positive changes within the family system. My goal is to empower teens to overcome challenges, build resilience, and thrive emotionally and academically during this critical stage of development.
