Meet Our Team of Experienced Child Therapists

Clinical Director, Owner
Dr. Jennifer Daffon, PsyD.
Hi I'm Jennifer Daffon, the Clinical Director at Emotesy. I'm a Clinical Psychologist who started working with children over 14 years ago and haven't looked back! Incorporating elements from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, Client Centered and Solution Focused therapy, I enjoy helping kids and their families learn new skills to manage the ups and downs of daily life and school.

Doctoral Intern
Larissa Croom, PsyD. Intern
I am currently a graduate student, working towards a Psy.D. in Counseling Psychology at Northwest University. I aim to be a safe space for children and families to express their emotions while supplying them with resources that help them grow and become the best version of themselves. My personal and professional experiences help me to connect with the youth and help them understand their feelings or thoughts while also teaching them how to work through it in a healthy way. I like to work through a person-centered lens because no one knows you better than yourself.

Virtual Associate Therapist
Allison Fila, LMHCA
As a therapist at Emotesy, I hope to provide a safe, supportive and open environment for children and adolescents by cultivating curiosity, courage, and care for individuals to be their authentic selves. I hope to aid in their growth as they traverse through their unique challenges, and to provide the necessary tools for their own autonomy and self-advocacy.

Virtual Associate Therapist
Tera Jo Hines, MS, LMHCA
I invite you to show up as you are, regardless of how you may feel. I am Tera Jo Hines, LMHCA and all of my work is Person-Centered and trauma-informed. During our work together, I will advocate for self-compassion as a mechanism by which to improve the relationship you hold with yourself. It can be difficult to trust a new person and I will work to ensure that I am someone you feel safe with. It is a privilege for me to learn another person’s story and I try to never lose sight of that.
