Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
I help adolescents navigate a wide range of challenges, including low self-esteem, bullying, depression, anxiety, social struggles, academic pressure, and relationship issues. While teletherapy may not be ideal for very young children, it can be highly effective for teens—and I continue to enjoy working with them in this format. My experience includes many years in a residential treatment setting for adolescents, which gave me deep insight into the unique pressures they face. I also bring advanced training in family therapy, which informs my work by considering each teen not just as an individual, but as part of a larger family system. This approach helps foster lasting change by improving communication, strengthening relationships, and supporting the whole family.

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.
