Toddler Therapists in Mesa, AZ

Are you worried about your infant, toddler, or preschooler’s development? Is your little one having trouble making friends and playing? Are you looking for an autism assessment?

I am a bilingual (Spanish) therapist who specializes in working with children and families. I offer both in-office and in-home counseling because I recognize that many kids feel more comfortable in their own home than in a therapist's office. Considering the fact that I will only be involved with a family for a relatively short period of time, I use a family systems approach to therapy and I teach parents how to become therapeutic to their children.

If you, your relationships, or your child feel stuck or overwhelmed, you don't have to struggle alone. You also don't have to relive painful memories or feel blamed or shamed to overcome the past. This is a safe and welcoming place for clients of all ages, couples, and families to heal and feel better. Therapy with me includes fun, creative, informative, bonding, and restorative moments; where everyone can feel welcome, seen, safe, and accepted. My goal is to help create deeply connected and authentic experiences where my clients can heal, grow, and create the life and the relationships that they've always wanted.

THE. TIME., exhausted, confused, irritated, angry, resentful towards your partner, family members and friends, feeling empty, nothing or NUMB, just knowing that something is NOT right, AFRAID to reach out for help?

I believe that every individual deserves the opportunity to be his/her best self, and that those we love deserve it too. I strive to appreciate the unique strengths and challenges of each child, individual, couple, and family that I meet. I believe that collaboration fosters resilience and value the importance of the therapeutic relationship. My clients are provided a trusting environment based on compassion and acceptance where they are safe to explore solutions to their most intimate challenges and receive support and wisdom to improve their most important relationships.

I know first hand how hard it can be to reach out for help, when the world tells us the goal is to "have it all together." Therapy can be uncomfortable and difficult, but that is how change happens. I like to make the process of change less challenging for people by making therapy about making a connection with someone, and providing a safe, supportive environment. Healing is a chance to look at the story we are living in and rewrite the parts that don't fit anymore. Our lives are busy and chaotic and somewhere in all of that, we need to find time to build better versions of ourselves and healthy relationships with others.
