Child/Teen
Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Childhood and adolescence can be times of tremendous growth — but also stress, confusion, and emotional challenges. I specialize in helping children and teens navigate issues such as anxiety, depression, school difficulties, peer and family conflict, self-esteem concerns, and adjustment to change.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and developmentally attuned. I work to create a safe, trusting space where young people can express themselves freely and begin to understand their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Sessions often include age-appropriate cognitive-behavioral techniques (CBT), emotional regulation skills, and guided problem-solving — all tailored to the child’s developmental level and individual needs.
Equally important, I work closely with parents and caregivers to strengthen communication and consistency at home. By helping families learn practical tools for support and structure, therapy becomes not just a place for the child to grow, but a foundation for the whole family to thrive.
Whether a child is struggling with school stress, social anxiety, mood swings, or family changes, my goal is to help them build resilience, confidence, and emotional understanding that will serve them for life.

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.
