Lisa Vespico-Mull
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, SAP, ICAADC
I have worked with children and adolescents for many years. I really enjoy working with adolescents and am typically able to gain rapport easily. The youngest child I will see will be ten or above due to my services being online only at this time. I always involve parents in the treatment and progress as well as diagnosis and impressions when allowed of course by the teenager. I believe it is important to create a safe space for the child or teenager to share but I also believe that family involvement is essential.

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.

Strides in Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PSY.D.
Usually, when people think about psychotherapy, they imagine sitting on a couch in an office talking to a therapist about their problems. This style of therapy works just fine for many adults and adolescents. However, most younger children express themselves better through play than through words—for them, play is a primary method of communication. Even very bright and highly verbal children may find it difficult to talk about situations when strong feelings are involved. This is why they might shrug their shoulders, refuse to answer or say “I don’t know” when asked what is wrong. They might also “act out” or try to communicate to you through their behavior rather than through words, and sometimes these behaviors can get them into trouble at home or at school or be misunderstood by those around them. In addition, children often find it hard to sit still and talk for 45 minutes in a row, and they enjoy coming to therapy much more when play is a part of the equation.

Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Adolescence is a time of very real physical and emotional changes, and certainly during this pandemic, there is greater concern for screen time, isolation, and education. Boundaries, skill sets, and emotional expression work does improve anxiety and can help teens grow in other ways.
