I am interested in your family values and what you hope to see in your home; incorporating these factors along with science and research allows me to tailor a patient/family-centered pharmacological plan for your child.
You're at work and your phone rings. It's your child's school informing you that your child is having trouble staying on task with their classwork or disrupting the classroom... again. You asked your child to put their toys away for what feels like the 100th time and then out of nowhere comes an explosion of emotions! Sometimes your child seems to be happy one moment and withdrawn and isolated the next. These are just a few examples of the concerns I hear from the parents of children I work with. If you find yourself relating to any of these examples, then I may be able to help you!

Family Therapy Psychiatrists
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.
