Alyssa Kushner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with teens ages 12+ and young adults virtually! If your teen is struggling with school anxiety, stress, or avoidance, self harm or emotional dysregulation, or depression or effects of trauma I am here to support! Through a blend of trauma-informed & somatic approaches I will help your teen learn how to cope with and manage feelings and develop confidence in themselves. I will always prioritize creating a safe and trusting relationship first, because I do believe the therapeutic relationship matters most. As a parent, it can be difficult when you know your teen is struggling all while you are also trying to keep up with life stressors and work, so I am happy to provide parent coaching every 4-6 weeks or sooner depending on need, to make sure you are being updated and know how to best support your teen. If the teen client is open to it, I will also happily provide family sessions to talk together as a team.

Psychologist, Psy.D., BCBA
Child and Adolescent Issues often present differently than adults. With this in mind, it is important to work at a child or adolescent's developmental level. I work with these special clients to meet them where they are, and to address their specific areas of need, including friendships, relationships, bullying, and academics. Suicidal ideation is also a rising concern among this population.
As a Licensed Psychologist and School Psychologist in PA, I am able to provide both therapy and evaluations for your child or adolescent.

When this is a presentation for our patients, we look to better understand what may be contributing to this. If this is something that wants to be addressed, and if so, how and when. Pacing is the key here.

Teens need just the right fit when it comes to working with a therapist. They need someone who can make them feel comfortable enough to open up while also challenging them at a level that helps them to grow. We have therapists who work with adolescents struggling with a variety of issues such as social anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addiction, self-harm, suicide, or just difficulty navigating everyday stressors.
