Are you finding yourself playing the role of Caregiver, therapist, and behavioral analyst, and finding it difficult to navigate it all? Perhaps you have realized that you need some assistance in helping your child process their trauma, behavior, and/or diagnosis. You’re not alone, and it sure does NOT make you any less than. It takes a village! Hello, I’m Ana. I specialize in collaborating with caregivers and clients to overcome traumatic experiences, anxiety, behaviors and become the healthiest version of themselves. I am ready to walk, dance, or skip into the journey with you and your child.
I have over six years of experience working in child development settings, child welfare settings, working with immigrant & unaccompanied refugee minors, and foster care systems. I also have firsthand experience treating children who are survivors of child sexual and physical abuse.
Starting therapy is one of the most empowering choices you can make for yourself and for your child. If you're here, that means you've taken the first step toward your mental health goal! Be so proud of yourself! There's no commitment to a therapist or therapy after one session! If I seem like I'd be a good fit, feel free to send me an email, or a message!
