Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
For many children and adolescents , wanting to feel like they're being heard and listened to is critical to changing negative behaviors. Often-times, despite their parent's best intentions, a third party is needed. Being an objective voice for these kids is often all that is needed. I'm able to help them bridge the communication gap they are feeling with their parents and sometimes, that is enough for significant change to start.

Empowering Families Counseling
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, Certified Parent Child Interaction Therapist (PCIT), Certified Perinatal Mental Health
As a Certified Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) therapist, I specialize in working with young children and their caregivers to address behavioral challenges and anxiety during the early, most impactful years of development.
I work with:
• Children ages 2–7 experiencing disruptive behaviors (tantrums, defiance, difficulty listening)
• Children ages 3–9 struggling with anxiety, worry, or emotional regulation
My approach focuses on coaching parents directly through a live, in-the-moment model. During virtual sessions, you’ll interact with your child while receiving real-time guidance through discreet coaching. This allows you to learn and apply proven, evidence-based strategies as situations unfold—so you can feel confident in how to respond, rather than second-guessing yourself after the fact.
This hands-on approach helps parents quickly build effective skills to reduce challenging behaviors, support their child’s emotional development, and strengthen the parent-child relationship.
The result? Children feel more secure, regulated, and successful—and parents feel calm, confident, and in control.

Psychotherapy opens our perceptions to the meanings behind our beliefs and patterns of behavior, that in turn comprise the roles we take in our lives. My job is to help you integrate these perceptions and access these meanings, so you can expand your life by creating new roles.
