Teresa De La Rosa

My communication style

With younger children, I communicate through play, games, art, and interactive activities that make therapy engaging and developmentally appropriate. With adolescents, I focus on building trust through authentic conversations that respect their independence and individuality.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist began with a passion for helping young people feel seen, heard, and supported during life's most challenging moments. Working with children and teens has shown me the incredible resilience they possess, and I feel honored to help them build the confidence, coping skills, and emotional tools they need to thrive.

My goals for you

I believe the best goals are created with children, not for them. Together, we identify what matters most to them and break it into small, achievable steps that build confidence, celebrate progress, and support lasting growth.

Our first session

The first session is all about getting to know each other. We'll talk about what brought you to therapy, explore your strengths, answer any questions you have, and begin creating a safe, comfortable space where you can feel heard and supported.
