Therapy offers children and adolescents a supportive and empowering space to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences, build resilience, and develop the skills they need to thrive during the tumultuous adolescent years. By working with a skilled therapist, young people can gain greater self-awareness, confidence, and emotional well-being as they navigate the transition to adulthood.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Adolescence is a time when we experience social issues, as well as issues of identity, independence and dealing with authority figures. It can be a tumultuous time for adolescents and parents.
Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, adolescents can become aware of any behaviors and conflicts are contributing to their unhappiness, as well find ways to be independent and meet your goals while facing parental or authority figure demands. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Anna Stephenson
Therapist, MA, CCLS, RDT, LCAT
Imagine having your childhood and teen years recorded LIVE in front of an audience, because that’s basically what kids in our ever increasingly digital world are navigating daily. There is collective anxiety regarding the world they will inherit - climate, race, social media, the economy, oh yeah and college applications. For people still developing their pre-frontal cortex, they are having to manage a lot decisions with long term outcomes.
Therapy gives kids and teens the opportunity to take an active role in their health care with a trusted adult who isn’t a family member or teacher. The coping skills and personal insights they develop now, they will carry with them into their adulthood.

Stephanie Marks
Hypnotherapist, MA
Are you a parent overwhelmed by raising your child? Are you struggling to remain calm and patient with your kids when situations are tough, leaving you feeling guilty and remorseful? Are you feeling frustrated and hopeless with your child, not knowing how to help them change certain behaviors they exhibit? Having a child can stimulates more feelings than any other life situation. In our children, we see parts of ourselves; in our parenting of them, we see our own histories of how we were raised, which can be painful and confusing at times. As a mother, I understand the complicated mix of emotions that is stimulated by being a parent. We can be pulled in different directions in our parenting, at times responding to our own childhood hurts. Becoming conscious of these patterns can open potential for new and more joyous ways of being with our children. I offer therapy to parents as well as to children and adolescents.
