Child or Adolescent Issues
Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Historically I worked a lot with children and adolescents. In recent years I have shifted away from working with young kids but still work with quite a number of adolescents. Very often this work involves meeting individually with the teen, but often too do I also hold sessions with the teen and their parent. Other times, I coach parents of teens without necessarily working directly with the teen themselves. My approach tends to involve helping adolescents learn to make healthy decisions by assisting them in thinking through their choices, consequences, and essentially assisting them in becoming more effective in finding strategies that will get them the results they want while minimizing negative outcomes. In general I avoid sharing much information about them with their parents directly unless there is a concern about safety. Rather, my approach is to help the teen to communicate with their parents themselves. When it would be helpful I often help the teen to have these healthier communications with there parents in family therapy sessions. As a parenting coach, I try to assist parents in shifting to age appropriate parenting strategies when possible.

Whether you're a parent or an adolescent, I am here to help by taking a development approach to becoming a whole person. I love supporting adolescents as they move towards greater embodiment of their identities. While this can be a struggle for both teens and parents, I provide a supportive space for teens to learn who they are and live their satisfaction.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My majority of my clinical experience and practice is working with adolescents, young adults and college students. I love working with adolescents as they have a unique and creative perspective on life and what they are struggling about. Adolescents often do not feel heard or seen and my work includes understanding of what they are trying to express to those within their life. Much of my clinical work allows for adolescents to gain some understanding of their situation and how to communicate with their parents and those within their circle of support.
