Getting to know Tina Cruz

Hello. Are you experiencing low energy, low motivation, trouble sleeping, irritability, poor concentration, or feeling sad, worried, or fearful about your negative or intrusive thoughts? The truth is, everyone experiences anxiety or depression at some point in their life, but these conditions are treatable, and you do not have to go through them alone. I am here to help. My name is Tina. I am a Latina, a mother, and a therapist with 20 years of experience treating children and adults with anxiety and/or depression. I hold a Master's in Psychology from Phillips Graduate University. I also specialize in maternal mental health and any other issues related to pregnancy and motherhood. I would love to help you find calmness, balance, and a more positive approach to coping with life stressors that often create anxiety and/or depression.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I will listen and provide feedback. At the end of each session, you will have some tools to practice with in between sessions.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Tina has been able to reach into our teen's mind and work with her respectfully and professionally; she has also been a great source of knowledge for us regarding how to deal with out teen's behavioral moods.
