Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Supporting Children & Teens Through Life’s Challenges
Growing up comes with unique challenges, and sometimes kids and teens need extra support to navigate emotions, relationships, and life transitions. At The Empowering Space, we provide a safe, understanding, and judgment-free environment where young people can express themselves, build resilience, and develop healthy coping skills. Our therapists specialize in working with children and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, peer relationships, school stress, self-esteem, and family dynamics.
Using age-appropriate, evidence-based approaches like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), play therapy techniques, and mindfulness, we help kids and teens develop emotional awareness, problem-solving skills, and confidence. We also collaborate with parents to provide guidance and tools to support their child’s well-being at home.
Every child deserves to feel heard, supported, and empowered. Let’s help them thrive.

I have extensive experience...over 20 years working with children and adolescents. I find that my office, casual demeanor and use of art/play/yoga/writing/guided imagery/talk with this population has been received well.

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.

W. Katherine Redd
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Is your teen having difficulty adjusting to the aches and pains of growing up? Are they exploring who they are or pushing the boundaries as they do? Or are they struggling with transitions? Each changing situation may have an impact, whether it is moving to a new location, the beginning of a new school year, or shifting from one classroom to the next. Whatever the change, it is especially hard for children and adolescents to navigate alone.
