Child/Teen
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

Aryn Ziehnert
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Navigating childhood and the adolescent years can be tough on young minds and their families. I provide a warm, strengths-based environment where young people can safely express themselves, process stress, build emotional regulation, and grow into their authentic selves with confidence and self-compassion.

Dr. Amy Schullery
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I help teens learn the best ways to cope with changes they are facing. I lot of teens I work with have high expectations for themselves and have a lot of pressure on them. We work on strategies to combat anxiety and stress that this time in life brings. I help college age students adjust to the unique challenges they are facing with adjusting to new schools, moving away from home, and balancing academics and other responsibilities. I also work with their parents, so that teen-parent relationships can be improved and parents can find the right strategies for helping.
