Erikka Cole
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
Adolescence is one of the most intense and underestimated periods of life. Teens are navigating identity, relationships, academic pressure, social dynamics, and big emotions, often without the words or tools to make sense of any of it. We specialize in working with teenagers in a way that actually meets them where they are: no lectures, no talking down, just a real space to figure things out. We also support parents in understanding what their teen is going through and how to stay connected during the harder seasons.

Diane Vaillancourt
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A., psychotherapist, Life Coach
I enjoy working with adolescent. They are a big part of my practice. It is a special stage of development and must be addressed differently. Adolescent are struggling at becoming a responsible adult and at separating from their parents. It is often a difficult time due to lack of communication with the parents and of understanding. I involved the parents in the sessions when it is needed.
