Alessandra Ortiz

Life can be hard at times, and I am here to help. My goal is to offer a safe, comfortable, and compassionate environment where I will provide therapy for children & teens navigating emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges. I have over 16 years of clinical work where I help children & teens feel heard, understood, and empowered.

My therapeutic approach is first and foremost using age-appropriate creative approaches such as play therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), and mindfulness techniques to help each child & teen express themselves and develop healthy coping skills.

I share with my clients in the beginning that we are working together, like a team. I am here to help them understand what we will be working on during their course of treatment. Together we will develop and create the appropriate goals and ensure they receive the support they need to meet them.
