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...

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I have a particular interest in working with children and adolescents as they navigate the often complex and evolving process of identity development. Adolescence is a time of profound change—emotionally, socially, and psychologically—and many young people struggle to make sense of who they are and where they belong.
I bring a specialized focus to working with adoptees and donor-conceived children and teens, who may face unique questions around identity, origin, and connection. These experiences can shape how young people understand themselves and their relationships in ways that are not always visible from the outside.
My approach is thoughtful, developmentally informed, and grounded in creating a space where young people feel safe to explore these questions openly. I also work closely with parents to help them better understand and support their child’s experience, strengthening communication and connection within the family as a whole.
