Becca Edwards
Therapist, LMSW, Ed.S., M.ed
Children and teenagers often communicate their struggles through behavior, emotions, relationships, or changes in functioning rather than words. I work to understand what may be underneath those behaviors while creating a safe, engaging space where young people can feel heard and understood. I also partner with parents and caregivers to support connection and growth.

Teens need just the right fit when it comes to working with a therapist. They need someone who can make them feel comfortable enough to open up while also challenging them at a level that helps them to grow. We have therapists who work with adolescents struggling with a variety of issues such as social anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addiction, self-harm, suicide, or just difficulty navigating everyday stressors.

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.
