As a clinical psychologist, my theoretical bases are developmental, psychodynamic and self-psychology theory. I strive to help my clients understand more about themselves, especially how early family dynamics, traumatic events, and major relationships of the past continue to play out throughout our lives, often in unexpected ways. Understanding the impact of these connections in terms of current concerns, be they family, career, environmental or social, can help prepare us to meet the challenges we face. Then there are more specific, targeted concerns that people have. For these concerns we turn to additional approaches.

I love supporting individuals who are navigating depression, anxiety, relationship problems and family conflict.
Depression, anxiety & stress leave us more than just feeling sad or anxious all the time. It can affect both mind and body which leaves us feeling disconnected, unmotivated, and lacking energy both internally and externally, impacting the relationships around us. You may believe that this is your “normal” and find it difficult to picture yourself any different. You might feel stuck, worried, drained, or scared. You want to lead a life full of confidence, happiness, and hope. Your yearning to change is a sign that you are ready to confront your depression, anxiety, or stress and make a positive change in your life. Lets get you there

Family Therapy Counsellors

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
