Parent of a 17 year old · Aug 2, 2026

Dr Alvarado explained the process very well and seemed to have a good knowledge base that enabled her to fully assess my child, given the wide range of emotions, symptoms, & current coping strategies.

This is the second child we have gone through the assessment to feedback process with Dr. Alvarado and we could not have more positive things to say. She is thorough, explaining things in ways that both parent and child understand and feel supported. Her response time to questions has been so helpful, and she has been such an amazing doctor to work with. She has trait that cannot be taught, it’s just who she is, and she is a delightful, curious, empathetic, engaging and encouraging person.
