Gina Reyes, Psy.D.

Parents/caregivers are often expected to hold everything together while receiving little support themselves. When your child, teen, or young adult is struggling with mental health concerns, it can feel overwhelming, isolating, and exhausting. Over time, you may begin to experience symptoms of anxiety or tramatic stress: -Constant worry, anxiety or hypervigilence -Difficulty with sleep, relaxing, or other physical symptoms -Guilt, self-blame, or second-guessing -Anxiety or worry about the next crisis -Emotional exhaustion and burnout -Relationship strain (marriages, family relationships, and friendships) I specialize in supporting parents when their child has: -Repeated mental health "emergencies" and periods of instability -Hospitalization, PHP, IOP, or residential treatment -Trauma and attachment related challenges -Self harm or suicidality concerns -Missing or runaway episodes and safety concerns -Exploitation, victimization, or online safety issues -School refusal, educational disruption, or SPED needs -Caregiver burnout and secondary traumatic stress My work combines: -Trauma-informed psychotherapy -Attachment focused approaches -Support for caregiver resiliency, and recovery -Guidance in navigating mental health, educational, and other systems -Resource identification, and informed decision-making Why work with me? I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology in 2002 and have been in private practice since 2016. My training and work spans, community, mental health, child guidance centers, school based services, postdoctoral work within the Hawaii Department of Health's child and adolescent mental health division as well as integrated behavioral health roles in Hawaii and Colorado based community health centers. In addition to my professional training and decades of clinical experience, I understand firsthand many of the realities families encounter when a child experiences, significant mental health challenges and requires multiple levels of care. You don't have to navigate this alone. Contact me to get started.
