Families I'm currently working with talk about the day to day stress of managing their child's behaviors, school expectations, work requirements and managing their own stress while balancing daily activities. Using PCIT to help with the any behavioral concerns you are currently facing will help reduce the stress and ensure everyone in the home is getting along better with each other. You will also feel more confident in how to respond to your child.

Welcome! I’m so glad you are reaching out! Finding a therapist who is able to listen and understand your particular needs is key. When I meet with you for the first time, I want to learn who you are as a person. What matters to you? What is your life story? Once I have a good understanding, we can decide jointly what approach is likely to help you most. When you come for counseling, you want to start to feel better right away. Using evidence-based coping skills from the first session, I help folks get some immediate stress relief. At the same time, we also can address any underlying issues to achieve more long-term gains.

I have always been a helper. In the first grade my compassion got me into trouble for reassuring a classmate that the teacher wouldn't mind if he removed the tape over his mouth to eat his recess snack. Needless to say, she minded. In high school I was the "go to" person for friends who were having all sorts of relationship problems. This pattern continued through college. I guess it is no surprise that I now help people solve their problems for a living.
