Hello! Hola! I’m Dr. Vanesa Cervantes, and I’m a Family and Child Psychologist. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults. I believe that every person has the potential to thrive and overcome challenges they may be currently facing. My treatment approach is collaborative, by working together we can develop healthy coping skills, strengthen your social and emotional health and empower you to understand and manage your emotions, behaviors, and social relationships. Through our work together you can expect to also learn effective coping strategies to manage life challenges.
I work with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, acting out behaviors, low self-esteem, identity, life transitions, parental separation/divorce, anger, and peer conflict. I strive to create a warm, accepting, creative, and exploratory environment for all of my patients.
I also specialize in relationship issues, with my background in Family Systems I can support you in having a deep understanding of your relationship patterns that may be impacting your emotional functioning. I make sure to provide a breathing space for my patients to and challenge themselves to create meaningful change in their lives.
