Child or Adolescent Issues

W. Katherine Redd

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Is your teen having difficulty adjusting to the aches and pains of growing up? Are they exploring who they are or pushing the boundaries as they do? Or are they struggling with transitions? Each changing situation may have an impact, whether it is moving to a new location, the beginning of a new school year, or shifting from one classroom to the next. Whatever the change, it is especially hard for children and adolescents to navigate alone.

Rockville, Maryland therapist: Laura Goldstein, marriage and family therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Laura Goldstein

Marriage and Family Therapist, LCMFT
A teen's main development task is to figure out who they are in this world. And as our world keeps getting more complicated, this task gets more difficult. During adolescence, teens are sorting through all sorts of internal struggles. They may be dealing with conflicting feelings, conflicting pressures between friends and family, conflicting desires, values and goals, and more. Ultimately, this often leaves them feeling alone and confused. And, because parents can be source of this pressure, they are not the best at helping their teen work through this confusion. This is exactly why teens need a therapist that is a dedicated and neutral person that can help them sort through their feelings and goals.

Child or Adolescent Issues

Dr. Patricia Webbink

Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I was trained in Child and Adolescent Psychology at Duke University, and had a child and adolescent internship at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. For many years, I have offered individual, family and group psychotherapy for children and adolescents in the Washington, DC metro area. I also work with their parents and I coordinate with their schools and universities, as needed. I lead groups for children of divorce as well. I am available globally with online networks and offer regular free zoom seminars every few weeks, which are appropriate for adolescents and adults. My approach involving relaxation, music, and imagery can provide a way of healing for children of all ages through the use of one's imagination. Over the years I have helped young clients with bed-wetting, encopresis, nightmares, learning disabilities, autism and Asperger’s, selective mutism, behavioral and school problems. Children are often resilient and respond well to psychotherapy! Please feel free to call for more information: 301-229-8000.

Child or Adolescent Issues

Lilia Ceron

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC,RPT
I am a Registered Play Therapist in the state of Maryland since 2021 I provide with each session an emotionally safe environment for children and adolescents to express themselves, as play is their natural language. I use child-centered techniques to help children process trauma, anxiety, and life stressors. As a Play therapist I have received specific training, supervision, and certification from the Association for Play Therapy (APT), different from from therapists who simply incorporate play into sessions.

Columbia, Maryland therapist: Sarah Jacques, licensed clinical social worker
Child or Adolescent Issues

Sarah Jacques

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
Growing up today can be overwhelming, especially for children and teens navigating school pressures, friendships, identity, and family expectations. I provide a supportive space where young people can explore their feelings, build coping skills, and develop confidence in who they are becoming. I also work closely with parents to strengthen communication and understanding at home, so the growth we build in therapy continues outside of our sessions.

Crofton, Maryland therapist: Beth Janis, psychologist
Child or Adolescent Issues

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.
