Best Therapies, Inc.

As adults, we underestimate the level of stress our young ones go through daily. Whether it’s overwhelming amounts of schoolwork, bullies that make them anxious or depressed in their academic environment, or a broken home that leaves them feeling fearful or unloved, children experience traumatic emotions just as adults do.
Unlike adults, children and teens may not have the tools, outlet, or language skills to voice their troubles or break down what they’re feeling. That’s where child counseling comes in. Our experienced specialists work with children and teens dealing with a mental illness or emotional strain to help them regain confidence and happiness.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
With over 30 years' experience in helping families understand and address emotional and behavioral problems with their children and teens, I have had many successes in helping resolve negative behaviors, difficult relationships, and even substance abuse issues. I also provide assessment of emotional and learning issues, liaison with schools to provide accommodations, communicate with physicians to begin, adjust or modify medication regimens, and provide suggestions regarding other services that might make a big difference in the child's emotional and/or academic well-being.

Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I LOVE playing and no one is better at playing than kids! I have been honored to witness children courageously bear their souls, face their hard life situations, fears, and shadow self (shame/embarrassment/guilt) and therefore bring freedom and creative, helpful ways of living into their lives. Obviously, play therapy looks different online, but with a few toys on each end and a child who feels safe and seen...watch out, they will create, play and process through what they need to without conscious knowledge or effort of doing so. I am just thankful to be along for the ride!
Most of my talk therapy will come with their parents who I like to work with more consistently than with the child. Helping parents figure out how they are reacting to their children and their children's thoughts, feelings, sensations, urges, and behaviors allow parents to create more comfortable and helpful ways of parenting and interacting with the little human being in their care.
Adolescent human beings are also a joy to connect with.
