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.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I am board certified in clinical child and adolescent psychology and provide psychotherapy through telehealth to children and adolescents ages 9 and up. I treat a range of concerns for children and teens, including childhood anxiety, specific fears (phobias), OCD, depression, and state of life concerns such as a transition to middle school, relationship challenges, and working through grief and loss of important people in a child's life. I can also work with you directly on problem-solving situations that arise in parenting, how to help your kids regulate big emotions, and explore patterns that may arise in your parenting style.

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.
