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.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Childhood and adolescence can be a confusing and overwhelming time for many, and it can be full of transitions, competing stressors, and uncertainty regarding who they are or where they belong. In our sessions, I strive to co-create a safe space where they can talk through the things that are most on their mind. By following their pace and providing support and guidance along the way, we can work to lessen the overwhelming impact of emotions, untangle confusing and painful beliefs, and find ways to navigate the situations in which they feel stuck.

Authentically You Counseling
Treatment Center, LCMHC
Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference!
I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all.
Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!
