Alejandra Rodriguez
As a parent, it’s heart-wrenching to watch your child struggle with emotions, behaviors, or challenges they can’t seem to express or overcome. You want the best for them – a place where they can feel understood, safe, and supported. That’s where Alejandra comes in.
Alejandra is a dedicated child therapist with over a decade of experience working with children. She holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Rutgers University. With 10 years as an Educational Assistant, Alejandra has a deep understanding of how children learn, grow, and navigate their emotions in the classroom and beyond.
Specialized Training to Help Your Child Thrive
Alejandra’s approach is uniquely tailored to meet the needs of children and teens. She’s trained in play therapy, a powerful and proven way for children to express their feelings when words aren’t enough. Through social-emotional learning techniques, Alejandra helps children develop the tools they need to manage their emotions, build positive relationships, and grow their resilience.
Her experience spans working with issues such as:
- Anxiety and Depression: Helping children who feel overwhelmed or withdrawn find their voice and joy.
- Trauma: Guiding children through the healing process after life-changing events.
- Substance Abuse in the Family: Supporting children impacted by the struggles of loved ones.
- Behavioral Challenges: Partnering with parents to address difficult or disruptive behaviors with care and understanding.
Alejandra uses evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach children practical skills they can use every day. Whether it’s learning how to manage big feelings, improving communication, or building confidence, Alejandra works with your child to make meaningful, lasting changes.
A Warm, Safe Space for Your Child
At the heart of Alejandra’s work is her commitment to creating a warm, non-judgmental environment where your child feels seen and supported. She believes every child is capable of growth and healing, and she partners with parents to ensure your family feels empowered and involved throughout the process.
When Alejandra isn’t helping children and families, you can find her immersed in arts and crafts, enjoying a good book, or dedicating her time to mission trips. She also cherishes quality moments with her own family, which fuels her passion for helping yours.
If your child is facing challenges, you don’t have to navigate them alone. Alejandra is here to help your child and your family take the first steps toward a brighter future.
