Child and adolescent issues seem to throw parents a curve ball! This is a transitional period with drama, experimenting, defiance, and yet dependency due to lack of life skills and character. Social media's influence and the lowered respect of the family are concerns for our youth.

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.

Tammara kamei
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC-MHSP
Children and teenagers experience many of the same difficult emotions as adults, but they may not always have the words or skills to explain what they are feeling. Changes in behavior, mood, school performance, relationships, sleep, or communication can sometimes be signs that a child or adolescent needs additional emotional support.
Our practice provides warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental child and adolescent counseling for children, teens, and families navigating emotional, behavioral, social, and family challenges.
Our clinicians work with young people experiencing concerns related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, behavioral problems, low self-esteem, social anxiety, bullying, grief and loss, trauma, family conflict, divorce or separation, peer relationships, school stress, emotional regulation, and major life transitions.
We believe children and adolescents need a therapeutic environment where they feel safe, respected, heard, and understood. Rather than simply focusing on a child's behavior, we work to understand the emotions, experiences, relationships, and circumstances that may be contributing to the behavior.
When appropriate, we also work collaboratively with parents and caregivers to strengthen parent-child communication, healthy boundaries, family relationships, routines, positive behavior strategies, and emotional support within the home.
Every child has strengths, and every family's situation is unique. Our goal is to help children and adolescents develop healthy coping skills, strengthen confidence, communicate their emotions more effectively, improve relationships, and build the emotional tools they need to grow into healthy and resilient young adults.
