Family conflicts often bring a lot of stress, creating a tense atmosphere that affects everyone involved. As a former family and youth worker and a mother of teenagers, I understand the challenges that both sides face.
With the guidance of a skilled therapist, individuals, parents and children can learn practical and valuable skills to strengthen family bonds, navigate major life transitions, manage crises and difficult times, resolve disagreements, and improve communication.
Family therapy helps you understand how your family functions, the strengths and weaknesses of your family, set goals and determine how can you achieve them.

I believe that strong, fulfilling relationships are built on a foundation of trust, respect, and mutual understanding. Through tailored interventions and evidence-based techniques, I empower families and children to navigate challenges, deepen their emotional bond, and create lasting positive change in their lives.
All families face challenges at times. Whether it’s the demands of a busy schedule, the responsibilities of raising children, battling depression, coping with medical condition, sexual dysfunction, the pain of infidelity, or adapting to significant life changes. With the right support and dedication, you can restore and strengthen your relationship.
