Brad Croyle
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
I work with clients who struggle with Child or Adolescent issues. It is difficult to be a kid today with the fast paced lifestyles and many pressures and demands, not to mention the presence of social media and the issues that this creates. During our sessions, we will collaborate to create a plan for addressing them that helps you resolve such issues in a meaningful manner to restore functioning enabling and empowering you to move beyond your past. I practice from a Holistic perspective and commonly employ EMDR and other effective modalities with helping clients achieve balance and purpose in their lives and creative solutions to their problems. This includes exploring past issues and trauma that may be a factor. No topics are off limits and we will explore whatever may be troubling you in a safe and secure environment. Many clients present with issues related to bullying, or social media issues. Some have issues related to family problems or other such dynamics. Whatever the problems may be, you are not alone and we will work together to resolve them. Our goal is to make lasting and desired changes to promote healthy relationships and positive interactions.

W. Katherine Redd
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Is your teen having difficulty adjusting to the aches and pains of growing up? Are they exploring who they are or pushing the boundaries as they do? Or are they struggling with transitions? Each changing situation may have an impact, whether it is moving to a new location, the beginning of a new school year, or shifting from one classroom to the next. Whatever the change, it is especially hard for children and adolescents to navigate alone.
