Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Children and teens often express distress in ways that can be confusing or concerning. I support young people in understanding their emotions, building resilience, and developing healthy coping skills. I also work collaboratively with caregivers to strengthen connection and communication, creating an environment where growth and healing can happen both in and outside of therapy.

Dr. Maria Canyon
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I have postdoctoral specialty training in Pediatric Psychology from Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. I am known for my ability to quickly build rapport with teenagers and their caregivers. I am straightforward in my approach and believe that therapy, although hard work, can also be lighthearted and even fun at times. I am interested in understanding teens as their whole individual selves, and not just their presenting concerns. I work to develop a safe confidential space for teens to explore their complex worlds and emotional lives, and collaborate with caregivers when needed. I am experienced working with gifted, neurodiverse, and highly sensitive teenagers.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Raising a loving, united family today means facing pressures no generation has ever seen. The constant pace, screens, and stress leave many parents—and their kids—exhausted and disconnected. What should be years of joy and discovery can become seasons of anxiety, defiance, or quiet withdrawal. You might see your child losing motivation, melting down over small things, struggling in school, or shutting you out completely. It’s hard to know when to step in or what to say—and even harder to watch them hurt.
At Rising Calm Center, we come alongside both parents and kids to restore understanding, structure, and peace in the home. Our Christian counselors create a warm, judgment-free space where young people can express emotions, build healthy coping skills, and grow in confidence—rooted in who God created them to be.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We use developmentally attuned, evidence-based approaches—CBT, DBT skills training, play and art therapy, family systems work, and somatic calming tools—woven together with faith-based encouragement and practical family coaching.
Together, we help your child:
• Understand and manage big emotions
• Reduce anxiety, irritability, and impulsivity
• Strengthen focus, responsibility, and resilience
• Heal from trauma, bullying, or self-esteem wounds
• Improve communication and rebuild trust at home
Whether your child is battling school stress, peer pressure, family conflict, or identity challenges, we help them—and you—find peace, purpose, and lasting growth.
You don’t have to parent through the storm alone. Hope and healing can begin here.
