Julia L. Torres

Helping families, and children, in particular, has always been the best fit for me. Throughout my career, I have worked with a range of people but children are my specialty, and it’s because I see so much hope in them. Kids have endless potential to grow and succeed, and I want to help nurture that because they are our future. As adults, we can get set in our ways, but children have flexible thinking, and that’s really fun to work with. I’m a nonjudgmental, steady and supportive child advocate, and I hold confidentiality in high regard. I take information and try to give my patients possible alternatives to help them feel better. My therapeutic specialties include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Family Systems, Play Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and Strength-Based Therapy. In my work with families and children, my niche areas are childhood anxieties, childhood depression, family therapy, and childhood behavior issues. For parents with a child going through behavior issues, it can seem as though life is always in a state of crisis. With the help of a child therapist, however, your child can learn the skill set they need to respond appropriately to daily challenges. Part of my work will be helping you and your child understand behavioral issues at their root.
