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.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have focused my private clinical practice on working with adolescents and young adults in particular. I have a lot of experience clinically and through volunteering working with adolescents. Whether in middle school, high school, college/early 20s, I really enjoy providing support and guidance to individuals in the incredibly important developmental phase of adolescence. It's important for adolescents to have their own safe, trusted outlet to explore the time period between childhood and full independence, which can include a lot of growth edges such as familial conflict, tumultuous peer relationships, overwhelming emotions, and new risk behaviors.
