SONYA L ALLEN
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CCTP
Children and adolescent youth struggle with myriad emotions and mood swings. Many behaviors are actually normal, but others can cause barriers to well being. Children’s brains are still forming, so it is important for them to learn important skills to manage intense and overwhelming emotions just as they are moving through childhood stages of development.

Mary W. Prentiss
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I work with children and adolescents who are struggling with big emotions, anxiety, ADHD, behavioral challenges, self-esteem, school difficulties, family changes, or stressful and traumatic experiences. I believe children communicate in many ways, so therapy doesn't always have to mean sitting still and talking.
I use play, creativity, movement, games, and developmentally appropriate activities to make therapy engaging and comfortable. I help children build skills for emotional regulation, frustration tolerance, coping, communication, problem-solving, and confidence. When appropriate, I also involve parents and caregivers to help support progress outside of therapy and strengthen the parent-child relationship.
My goal is to create a space where children and teens feel heard and understood while helping them develop practical skills they can use at home, at school, and in their relationships. I want therapy to feel like a safe place whe
