My ideal clients include children adolescents experiencing depression related to identity challenges, family conflict, and low self-esteem. These youth often benefit from developing stability in at least one area of their lives and strengthening their ability to set and maintain healthy boundaries within their environments. When their core needs are acknowledged and supported, they can reduce self-blame and experience meaningful decreases in depressive symptoms.
I am also deeply interested in working with couples who are seeking to improve communication, rebuild trust, or navigate significant transitions.
As a Marriage and Family Therapy Associate, I am able to work with all members of the familial system in order to bring stability to the home environment. When working with couples, I am able to provide support in helping them to identify patterns that hinder connection and help them to cultivate healthier, more resilient relational dynamics.
If you or your child are feeling overwhelmed, confused, or disconnected, you are not alone. Together, we can slow things down, understand what’s underneath the conflict, and begin rebuilding connection and trust. Taking the first step can feel vulnerable, but I can help you move toward clarity, healing, and healthier relationships in your life.
