Maliya does a great job connecting with my daughter and focusing on her needs. She is my daughters second try at a therapist and it was a match right away. She is also great at keeping the parent involved, bringing me in when needed. If I share an event that I think is important to discuss she ensures to incorporate it. And my favorite part is that she is treating her holistically how to protect her nervous system.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT)
I'm a bilingual (Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with children, adolescents, and young adults, along with the caregivers who support them. I believe therapy works best when caregivers are active partners, so collaboration is a big part of how I work. I use Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Alternatives for Families CBT (AF-CBT), Problematic Sexual Behavior TF-CBT (PSB TF-CBT), motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and play-based strategies to help young people process trauma, manage big emotions, and build healthier coping skills. My sessions are calm and supportive, while still engaging and age-appropriate. I work with children and teens experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, and other emotional or behavioral challenges. I chose this work because I’m passionate about helping children and caregivers heal together and feel more confident moving forward.
