DIRECTOR CAARE CENTERMichele Ornelas Knight, Psy.D.
My goal is to provide cultural responsive, empirically supportive treatment focused on creating a safe space for each client and family to the build trust needed to engage in therapy. Therapy can elicit many feelings and create a sense of vulnerability; making the choice to start the work takes courage. Taking the time to listen to children and families and help them prioritize their needs is an essential first step.
