Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I specialize in working with children and teens whose lives have been shaped by medical challenges, trauma, or neurodivergence. This may include serious or chronic illness, complex diagnoses, hospitalizations, accidents, frightening events, sexual abuse, or sensory and regulation differences that make school, friendships, or family life harder to navigate. Some young people I see are carrying several of these layers. Others are coping with one significant experience, such as PTSD after a specific event or the emotional impact of a new diagnosis.
Many of the children and teens I work with are carrying more than anyone realizes. On the outside, they may look like the good kid, the brave patient, or the one who holds everything together. Inside, they can feel scared, angry, overwhelmed, numb, or very alone.
My work is not general child therapy. I focus on how stress, trauma, medical experiences, and neurodivergence live in a young person’s body, emotions, and relationships. I also work closely with parents so you feel less isolated and more supported in responding to what your child is going through.

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.
