LEGACY MENTAL HEALTH CONSULTING SERVICES
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Legacy Mental Health Consulting Services provides compassionate, developmentally informed support for child and adolescent concerns, helping young people navigate emotional, behavioral, social, and academic challenges. We understand that children and teens often struggle to express what they’re feeling, so we create a safe, engaging environment where they can explore their experiences and build healthy coping skills. Using approaches such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, behavioral strategies, and family‑focused interventions, we help youth manage anxiety, mood changes, anger, school stress, peer issues, and identity development. We also partner closely with parents and caregivers to strengthen communication, improve routines, and support the child’s growth at home and school. Our goal is to empower young people with tools that foster resilience, confidence, and emotional well‑being as they move through critical stages of development.

Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Childhood and adolescence are among the most formative years of a girl's life, and when something feels off, it can affect everything from her confidence and friendships to her school performance and sense of self. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in supporting girls ages 6 and up through the unique emotional and developmental challenges of growing up, including behavioral concerns, emotional outbursts, social struggles, low self-esteem, school-related stress, and family changes. We create a warm, age-appropriate space where girls feel safe expressing themselves, being heard, and developing the coping skills they need to navigate life with confidence and resilience. Investing in your daughter's mental health today is one of the most powerful gifts you can give her tomorrow.

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
