Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I specialize in supporting children and adolescents through the diverse challenges of growing up, providing a safe, collaborative space to navigate developmental, social, and behavioral milestones. Whether addressing life transitions, identity development, school-related stress, or general emotional challenges, my approach is centered on building a strong therapeutic alliance with both the child and their family. By partnering with parents and schools, I help young clients build the resilience, emotional vocabulary, and practical coping skills necessary to thrive at home, in the classroom, and beyond.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
For many children and adolescents , wanting to feel like they're being heard and listened to is critical to changing negative behaviors. Often-times, despite their parent's best intentions, a third party is needed. Being an objective voice for these kids is often all that is needed. I'm able to help them bridge the communication gap they are feeling with their parents and sometimes, that is enough for significant change to start.

Spokane is eastern Washington's largest city and serves as the commercial and healthcare hub for a vast inland region — the Inland Northwest — creating a therapy community that draws clients from across a wide geographic area and addresses the particular stressors of rural and small-town communities alongside its own urban population. The city has a significant veteran and active-duty military population connected to Fairchild Air Force Base, and therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and service-to-civilian transition serve an important role. Providence Health and MultiCare Health System provide major institutional mental health resources alongside Washington State University's Spokane health sciences campus, which feeds clinical training into the local community. Spokane's economic challenges — including persistent poverty in some neighborhoods — mean therapists here frequently work with economic stress, substance use, and the compounding effects of long-term financial precarity.
