Supervised by Desiree McLaughlin, LMFT #105097
In-Person Virtual

Victoria has a gift for making kids and teens feel at ease from the very first session. She believes that feeling genuinely understood is the foundation of real change, and she works hard to earn that trust with every client she sees. Using play, creativity, and practical tools, she helps young people make sense of what they are feeling and build skills they will actually use outside of the therapy room. For children carrying big emotions or difficult experiences, Victoria offers something rare: a space where they can just be themselves, without pressure or judgment.

Virtual Only

Camila works especially well with teens who look fine on the outside but feel exhausted, lost, or disconnected inside. She has a deep understanding of what it feels like to carry more than you should, and that understanding comes through in every session. Drawing on trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and a family systems lens, she helps young clients untangle old patterns, set real boundaries, and start building a sense of self they can trust. Her sessions are gentle but honest, and she is not afraid to go deep when a client is ready.

Common Questions

Answers for families

How do I know if my child needs therapy?
If you are noticing changes in your child's mood, behavior, sleep, school performance, or friendships that concern you, it may be worth having a conversation with a professional. You do not need a diagnosis or a crisis to reach out. Our free 15-minute consultation is a low-pressure first step.
Will I be involved in my child's therapy?
Yes. Caregiver involvement is an important part of child and adolescent therapy. We provide regular check-ins with parents and collaborate with your family on goals and progress. The level of involvement is tailored to your child's age and what will be most helpful for their treatment.
What is the difference between in-person and virtual therapy for kids?
Both are effective. In-person sessions at our Corona, CA office can be a good fit for younger children or those who benefit from face-to-face connection. Virtual sessions offer flexibility and work especially well for teens and busy families. We will help you figure out which format makes the most sense for your child.
Are your therapists supervised?
Yes. Both Victoria Granados (APCC) and Camila Caparelli (AMFT) are registered associates providing services under the clinical supervision of Desiree McLaughlin, LMFT #105097, in accordance with California BBS requirements.
Do you accept insurance for child therapy?
Yes. We are in-network with Aetna, IEHP, Medicare, United Healthcare/Optum, and Anthem Blue Cross. We recommend calling your insurance provider to verify your child's mental health benefits before the first session. Our intake team is also happy to help you navigate the process.
