Child/Teen
Dr. Cathy E. Pickett
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCMHC, LCA, CCTP, NCC
I work with children and adolescents in a supportive, age-appropriate, and compassionate environment where they can feel safe, heard, and understood. My approach recognizes that children and teens may communicate their emotions through behavior, withdrawal, anger, anxiety, academic difficulties, or changes in relationships rather than through words alone. I use evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT-informed strategies, mindfulness, emotional regulation, and solution-focused techniques to help young clients identify and express their feelings, develop healthy coping skills, improve self-esteem and confidence, manage anxiety and stress, strengthen relationships, and navigate life transitions. When appropriate, I collaborate with parents and caregivers to help them better understand their child's needs and develop practical strategies that support emotional and behavioral growth at home. My goal is to help children and adolescents build the tools, confidence, and resilience they need to manage challenges and develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and responding.

Dr. Karina Luaces
Psychologist, PsyD.
The teenage and young adult years can be some of the most emotionally complex. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where young people can feel truly heard — whether they're navigating self-esteem struggles, peer relationships, school stress, or intense emotions.

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.

Seaford Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, M.Ed, LCMHC
I LOVE working with teenagers! Four out of five of my kids are adolescents, so I like to think I understand this population fairly well. For whatever reason, I find I can easily connect with teens; and once we connect and trust one another, we are able to work through many of the struggles they face. Teens today are often misunderstood and underestimated. The truth of the matter is that we've built this world for them that is 24/7 stressful and anxiety-producing. We've built tiny computers they carry in their pockets that are forcing them to constantly be on-call, on-screen, and on fire! Then we have the audacity to blame them for their anxiety, depression, poor focus, loneliness, and addictions that WE created! Don't tell my kids, but we are the ones who should be grounded...
