About Counseling Kids and Adults

A message from the owner ~ 

      "I wanted to become a therapist because there were those that helped me when I struggled in

      my life and I wanted to give back to the community, what was so freely given to me."

                                Sincerely, Carla McKean MA LMFT, LADC

Our Mission and Values:

We believe that modeling is the best teacher! We believe that we cannot be good role models if we do not take good care of ourselves first. Not in a selfish way, but in a similar way that we practice surviving on an airplane, we put our oxygen mask on before we help others because if we are not alive and well, we cannot take care of those we care about. At Counseling Kids and Adults, we take  care of our providers so that they can take good care of themselves. Providers that are able to do good self-care, will be the best example to their clients and be able to withstand the many stressors that therapy can bring. 

We help families, couples, and individuals of all ages overcome mental health issues, relationship problems and return to a joy filled life. We are unique because all of our providers are either trained or working toward training in diagnosing children ages 0-5 and love working with children of all ages. Many mental health providers refuse to work with children or teens. Not us! We believe that since we were all once children, it is our duty to help people just like us, because it is the right thing to do!
