Child/Teen
Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Childhood and adolescence can be a confusing and overwhelming time for many, and it can be full of transitions, competing stressors, and uncertainty regarding who they are or where they belong. In our sessions, I strive to co-create a safe space where they can talk through the things that are most on their mind. By following their pace and providing support and guidance along the way, we can work to lessen the overwhelming impact of emotions, untangle confusing and painful beliefs, and find ways to navigate the situations in which they feel stuck.

Sydney Fowler
Counselor/Therapist, MT-BC, LPC
I work with adolescents (ages 12 and up) who may be experiencing trauma, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or behavioral challenges. I prioritize building strong rapport and creating a space where teens feel comfortable, understood, and supported. Treatment is tailored to each individual’s needs and often incorporates creativity to support expression, engagement, and emotional processing. Therapy focuses on developing coping skills, improving emotional regulation, and increasing self-awareness, with caregiver collaboration when appropriate.

Happy Camper Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, RPT-S, EMDR Consultant, TBRI Educator
Children and teens don’t always have the words to express what they’re feeling. Through play, Sandtray therapy, and nature-based approaches, I create a safe and engaging space where young clients can process emotions, build confidence, and develop healthy coping skills while also supporting parents along the way.

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.

Restoring Hope Counseling & Consulting, PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, RPT, NCC, CCPRT
All of our clinicians have been trained at the world renowned Center for Play Therapy. We utilize the only evidence-based form of play therapy called Child-Centered Play Therapy. The specific counseling skills we use in play therapy with children actually enhance our work with teens and adults as well, whether providing sandtray therapy, other expressive art activities, or simple talk therapy. When working with minors, we meet with their parents on a regular basis too in order to provide support to the parents and keep them involved in the therapeutic process.
