I have worked primarily with youth and their families for well over 20 years, helping them learn emotion control, effective communication skills, and conflict resolution, and how to deal with other problematic issues as a criminologist. Families oftentimes find themselves needing more help than ever when dealing with youth who are in their turbulent teenage years. My specialty has been with youth of all ages, but especially teens, and their families.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Raising a loving, united family today means facing pressures no generation has ever seen. The constant pace, screens, and stress leave many parents—and their kids—exhausted and disconnected. What should be years of joy and discovery can become seasons of anxiety, defiance, or quiet withdrawal. You might see your child losing motivation, melting down over small things, struggling in school, or shutting you out completely. It’s hard to know when to step in or what to say—and even harder to watch them hurt.
At Rising Calm Center, we come alongside both parents and kids to restore understanding, structure, and peace in the home. Our Christian counselors create a warm, judgment-free space where young people can express emotions, build healthy coping skills, and grow in confidence—rooted in who God created them to be.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We use developmentally attuned, evidence-based approaches—CBT, DBT skills training, play and art therapy, family systems work, and somatic calming tools—woven together with faith-based encouragement and practical family coaching.
Together, we help your child:
• Understand and manage big emotions
• Reduce anxiety, irritability, and impulsivity
• Strengthen focus, responsibility, and resilience
• Heal from trauma, bullying, or self-esteem wounds
• Improve communication and rebuild trust at home
Whether your child is battling school stress, peer pressure, family conflict, or identity challenges, we help them—and you—find peace, purpose, and lasting growth.
You don’t have to parent through the storm alone. Hope and healing can begin here.

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.
