Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Kids and teenagers don't always have the words for what they're feeling — but they carry just as much as adults do. Anxiety that looks like defiance. ADHD that looks like laziness. Big emotions that come out sideways because no one's taught them how to name what's happening inside.
I work with children as young as five through college age, meeting each young person where they are developmentally and building the kind of trust that makes real therapeutic work possible. Over more than 20 years of practice — and as a parent myself — I've learned that young clients need to feel genuinely safe before they'll open up. That takes patience, creativity, and a willingness to follow their lead.
I most commonly work with young people navigating anxiety, ADHD, autism spectrum differences, and the stress that comes with family transitions or conflict. When it's helpful, I bring parents into the process — not to report on their child, but to equip the whole family to support growth at home. The goal is always the same: help the young person understand themselves better, build real coping skills, and feel less alone in whatever they're facing.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Growing up is not easy for anyone including children, adolescents, or their parents! The reality is that it can be very hard to be a child or teen. They experience vast changing emotions, however, they are not equipped at their developmental stages to handle or understand feelings and experiences the same way as adults. I would strive to provide a nonjudgmental, safe and comforting environment for your child or adolescent to process through their various degrees of emotions and experiences, and aid them in expressing and making sense of how they are feeling more effectively.

Nick Young
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-Associate
I work with teens who are navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, self-doubt, identity questions, school pressure, relationships, family conflict, emotional overwhelm, or difficulty feeling confident in who they are. Adolescence can be a challenging season, especially when teens feel misunderstood, disconnected, or unsure how to express what they are carrying. My approach is warm, respectful, and collaborative, helping teens feel seen while building emotional awareness, coping skills, confidence, and a stronger sense of self.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have focused my private clinical practice on working with adolescents and young adults in particular. I have a lot of experience clinically and through volunteering working with adolescents. Whether in middle school, high school, college/early 20s, I really enjoy providing support and guidance to individuals in the incredibly important developmental phase of adolescence. It's important for adolescents to have their own safe, trusted outlet to explore the time period between childhood and full independence, which can include a lot of growth edges such as familial conflict, tumultuous peer relationships, overwhelming emotions, and new risk behaviors.
