Does your child struggle with mental health? Are you overwhelmed by how parenting a child with different needs affects your mental health? Are you tired of trying to manage it all on your own? You want to help your child succeed while maintaining your own physical and emotional well-being but aren’t sure how. Maybe language or cultural barriers make it challenging to find the needed help. Working with an LCSW skilled at providing mental health care and coordinating services from community resources can empower you and your family to live happy, successful lives.
Alicia Fernandes, LMSW, provides individual, couple, and family therapy in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. She works with substance use disorder, bullying, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, LGBTQIA+ issues, trauma, PTSD, chronic stress, autism, life changes, chronic illness, ADHD, navigating the 504 and IEP processes, and more.
When you or a loved one struggles with mental health, just getting out of bed can be an incredible challenge. Add in life's stressors you can wind up feeling paralyzed and overwhelmed. You don’t have to struggle alone. The right help from a qualified social worker can help you and your family heal and move forward to the life you were meant to live.
