Ms. Lorna Hayim-Baker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, "R"LCSW
The first time I meet with the parents only as it is often their style of parenting that is creating difficult children. Children need to be parented by unconditionally loving parents who know how to use positive discipline. A special license should be required before a woman gets pregnant.!

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I work with children and adolescents navigating emotional, behavioral, or identity-related challenges during important stages of development. Together, we create a supportive, developmentally appropriate space where they can better understand and express their emotions, build healthy coping skills, and strengthen communication and self-awareness. My approach is engaging, collaborative, and tailored to the child or teen’s needs, helping them feel heard while also learning practical tools they can use in daily life. When appropriate, I also work with caregivers to support consistency, strengthen understanding, and promote lasting progress at home and in other settings. The goal is greater emotional stability, confidence, and healthier relationships for both the client and their support system. If you’re looking for support for your child or teen, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.
