Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I use a strength-based approach to support children and adolescents in therapy, by focusing on their inherent strengths, passions and potential rather than solely addressing problems or deficits. My therapeutic approach emphasizes identifying and harnessing each young person’s unique abilities, talents, and resilience in order to foster personal growth and improve problem-solving skills. Understanding the current landscape and challenges faced by youth today—such as academic pressures, social media influences and evolving family dynamics—is crucial for tailoring interventions that are relevant and impactful. I intentionally integrate the child’s or adolescent’s imagination and creativity into therapy as well, in order to create a therapeutic process that is interesting, engaging and ultimately empowering. Working with children and adolescents also requires a multidisciplinary approach which can involve parents, extended family, teachers, school counselors and pediatricans in the process. Parents understand the child’s home environment and family dynamics, teachers have insights into the child’s academic and social performance at school, and pediatricians offer medical, historical and developmental perspectives. Combining these viewpoints provides a more comprehensive understanding of the child’s situation and provides information that guides the therapeutic process and ensures greater treatment efficacy across the child or adolecent's environments.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PsyA
I work with children as young as 8, often incorporating some form of play or storytelling into the therapy to help them communicate at an age-appropriate level. I work with adolescents all through the teen years and into adulthood, shaping our work to fit to where the teen is developmentally. While I encourage and need family/parent involvement periodically or as needed, I try to create a safe space where I can also talk to the child or adolescent in a space that is different from the home or family.
