Ellen S Leventhal
Marriage and Family Therapist, MEd, MA, LMFT
Psychotherapy helps children and adolescents in a variety of ways. They receive emotional support, resolve conflicts with people, understand feelings and problems, and try out new solutions to old problems. Goals for therapy may be specific (change in behavior, improved relations with friends or family), or more general (less anxiety, better self-esteem). The length of psychotherapy depends on the complexity and severity of problems.

Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
For over thirty years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children and adolescents to address challenges such as anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, social anxiety, emotional regulation, depression, and academic or everyday pressures. With younger children, I work closely with parents, offering guidance and practical strategies that build resilience, connection, and emotional growth. With teens, I provide a safe, supportive space to explore their experiences and develop effective tools to manage challenges with greater confidence, agency and self-assurance.
