Child or Adolescent Issues
Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
In my practice, I adopt a holistic approach to addressing the unique challenges faced by children and adolescents. By integrating cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral techniques, and parent management training, I ensure that each intervention is grounded in evidence-based practices. Working closely with children and teens, I help them identify and challenge the negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be contributing to their difficulties, empowering them to make positive changes in their lives.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I use a strength-based approach to support children and adolescents in therapy, by focusing on their inherent strengths, passions and potential rather than solely addressing problems or deficits. My therapeutic approach emphasizes identifying and harnessing each young person’s unique abilities, talents, and resilience in order to foster personal growth and improve problem-solving skills. Understanding the current landscape and challenges faced by youth today—such as academic pressures, social media influences and evolving family dynamics—is crucial for tailoring interventions that are relevant and impactful. I intentionally integrate the child’s or adolescent’s imagination and creativity into therapy as well, in order to create a therapeutic process that is interesting, engaging and ultimately empowering. Working with children and adolescents also requires a multidisciplinary approach which can involve parents, extended family, teachers, school counselors and pediatricans in the process. Parents understand the child’s home environment and family dynamics, teachers have insights into the child’s academic and social performance at school, and pediatricians offer medical, historical and developmental perspectives. Combining these viewpoints provides a more comprehensive understanding of the child’s situation and provides information that guides the therapeutic process and ensures greater treatment efficacy across the child or adolecent's environments.

When working with gender diverse kids and teens, my focus is not only on supporting your young person but also on empowering you throughout the process. I know that having a gender diverse child brings its own unique challenges, and I’m here to provide you with the tools and resources you need to navigate this journey with confidence and compassion.
I offer regular parent check-ins and create family action plans after each session to keep you involved in your child’s progress and give you practical steps for supporting them at home. Additionally, parents have access to my secure parent portal, filled with resources tailored specifically to families of gender-diverse kids. Through monthly expert Q&A sessions, parents can connect with professionals to ask questions and gain insights on how to best support their child’s journey.
The goal is to ensure that you feel supported, educated, and empowered to advocate for your child while maintaining a strong, open relationship as they grow into the person they were meant to be.
