Ana Ruiz

Hi, I’m Ana. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years as a teacher, where I found deep joy in nurturing the growth and potential of children. Over time, I realized that true, lasting change begins with emotional well-being—not just for children, but for the adults who care for them. This realization guided me from the classroom into the field of mental health. In our sessions, you will never be judged or rushed. Instead, we work together at your pace to explore your story, your strengths, and the patterns that shape your life.

My primary therapeutic approaches include cognitive and behavioral therapy to help identify and replace negative thoughts and behaviors with healthier ones, person-centered therapy to create a safe, supportive space where you feel understood and can explore your feelings, Child-Parent Psychotherapy to help you and your child heal from trauma and improve your

My priority is to walk alongside you on your journey, providing a safe and supportive space where you feel truly heard and valued. We will go at your pace and work together to build your treatment plan.
