Child or Adolescent Issues
Cara Waters
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCDC
Adolescents face pressures and obstacles they are unable to handle due to their developmental age. Adolescents experience strong emotions that they are not mature enough to understand, much less express them in a way parents and caregivers can understand. I work with adolescents who are struggling with LGBTQ+ issues, anxiety, relationships, depression, self-esteem and self-harm issues. I have adolescent therapy groups where these topics are discussed, as well as, the effects of social media, body image, bullying, peer pressure and what it means to have values, morals and responsibilities.

Megan Kearns
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC,LAC
I've worked with parents on their parenting skills and how to help raise little humans. I'm also able to work with adolescents and help them hold/process the big feelings they have. Kids come into the world with adult sized emotions and its scary and overwhelming trying to figure out how to handle them - its hard for adults to do this too, since we weren't taught either. We can work on skills to feel our feelings together.

Dr. Maria Canyon
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I have postdoctoral specialty training in Pediatric Psychology from Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. I am known for my ability to quickly build rapport with teenagers and their caregivers. I am straightforward in my approach and believe that therapy, although hard work, can also be lighthearted and even fun at times. I am interested in understanding teens as their whole individual selves, and not just their presenting concerns. I work to develop a safe confidential space for teens to explore their complex worlds and emotional lives, and collaborate with caregivers when needed. I am experienced working with gifted, neurodiverse, and highly sensitive teenagers.

Candice Dow
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC,
Therapy for teens can be as flexible as the needs of the teen. I tend to focus on getting to know my adolescent clients before deciding on a way to work with them. As someone who has years of experience working with adolescents, I know the most important aspect of any relationship is gaining their trust first. My favorite thing about working with teens is that they do question authority and the way I see it, this is a major developmental stage for them. That being said, everything must happen with a level of trust and safety. I encourage curiosity and skepticism, as long as it happens in a respectful way. When I work with teens, I like to use artistic interventions and may even to play music as these are ways in which young people communicate their feelings and connect with other people. I have worked with teens in education programs, teens with foster care experience, teens with trauma and abusive pasts and teens with anxiety, low self-esteem and pressures from high demands at school.
