Our Therapists

Roniqua Zimmermann, LCSW

Child & Adolescent Therapist | Practice Owner

​

I specialize in working with young children ages 2 to 7 and their families, helping them navigate emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges with compassion and care. I believe parents are the experts on their children, and I partner closely with families to build stronger connections, improve communication, and support healthy emotional growth.

 

Using an attachment-based and trauma-informed approach, I create a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, understood, and empowered to express themselves. Together, we strengthen parent-child relationships, develop emotional regulation and social skills, and create positive, lasting changes that foster confidence, connection, and resilience.

Moya Perez, MSW

Child & Adolescent Therapist

​​

I believe children and teens do best when they feel safe, supported, and truly heard. My goal is to create a warm and comfortable space where clients can be themselves while learning healthy ways to manage emotions, navigate challenges, and build confidence. I enjoy working with children and teens experiencing anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem concerns, school stress, peer or family challenges, and life transitions.

 

My approach is collaborative and tailored to each client’s unique personality and needs, incorporating DBT-informed strategies, coping skills development, creative interventions, and supportive talk therapy. I also value building strong relationships with parents and caregivers and believe that feeling understood and supported can make a meaningful difference in a child or teen’s growth and healing.

Stacey Yates, LMSW, Ed.S

Child & Adolescent Therapist

​

I believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and understood, and my approach focuses on understanding the “why” behind behaviors while building trusting relationships. As a parent — including a parent of a child with special needs — and a former school counselor, I understand how anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation challenges, behavioral concerns, school stress, and family transitions can impact a child’s well-being.

 

I work with school-aged children and adolescents using a warm, developmentally appropriate, and collaborative approach that incorporates play-based therapy, coping skills, creative activities, and talk therapy. I value partnering closely with parents and caregivers to help children feel confident, supported, and successful at home, school, and beyond.

Millicent Pedersen, APC, NCC
Child & Adolescent Therapist

​

"Listening is a very deep kind of giving."

— Mr. Rogers

​

Choosing the right therapist for your child is an important step, and I strive to create a space where children feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow. I work with children and adolescents ages 2 to 18, helping them navigate anxiety, grief, trauma, emotional regulation, and behavioral challenges through a compassionate, strengths-based approach.

​

Using play-based interventions, bibliotherapy, and positive psychology techniques, I help children express their emotions, build healthy coping skills, and develop confidence in themselves. I also believe parents are essential partners in the therapeutic process and work closely with families to support lasting growth both at home and in therapy.

My goal is to help every child and family feel heard, supported, and equipped with the tools they need to thrive together.

Crystal Kennerly, MFT
Child & Adolescent Therapist​

​

I believe every child deserves to feel understood, supported, and confident in who they are. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I enjoy helping children, adolescents, and their families navigate life's challenges while building stronger relationships and emotional well-being. I work with children experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioral concerns, and family relationship challenges.
​
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each child's unique needs. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family Systems Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and play-based interventions to help children develop healthy coping skills, improve emotional resilience, and build confidence.
​
I believe parents and caregivers are essential partners in the therapeutic process, and I work closely with families to create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where your child and family can grow and heal together.
