Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Adolescence is a time of very real physical and emotional changes, and certainly during this pandemic, there is greater concern for screen time, isolation, and education. Boundaries, skill sets, and emotional expression work does improve anxiety and can help teens grow in other ways.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I specialize in working with children and teens whose lives have been shaped by medical challenges, trauma, or neurodivergence. This may include serious or chronic illness, complex diagnoses, hospitalizations, accidents, frightening events, sexual abuse, or sensory and regulation differences that make school, friendships, or family life harder to navigate. Some young people I see are carrying several of these layers. Others are coping with one significant experience, such as PTSD after a specific event or the emotional impact of a new diagnosis.
Many of the children and teens I work with are carrying more than anyone realizes. On the outside, they may look like the good kid, the brave patient, or the one who holds everything together. Inside, they can feel scared, angry, overwhelmed, numb, or very alone.
My work is not general child therapy. I focus on how stress, trauma, medical experiences, and neurodivergence live in a young person’s body, emotions, and relationships. I also work closely with parents so you feel less isolated and more supported in responding to what your child is going through.
