Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Stephanie Ruiz and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I've been working with children and families for over a decade and have a background in early childhood development.

My approach to therapy

I use an attachment-focused and trauma-informed approach in treatment. I've been trained in child-parent psychotherapy, a model used to help families heal and grow after stressful events.

What you can expect from me

I strive to build a therapeutic bond where clients feel safe and supportive as we reflect on the challenges and collaborate on goals.
