Today thousands of people are suffering with substance abuse/addiction. The struggle is exhausting, feeling powerless with no hope, they don't know what to do, they've tried everything they can think of and they are at the end of their rope. The behaviors of the person who is using become the primary focus, and life is held hostage to unpredictability. No one in the
family
is left untouched. I have been working with substance use disorder and addiction for the past 20 years, I use a few different approaches because one size doesn't fit all. My process is simple, down to earth and powerful.

I use culturally sensitive strategies and appropriate modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and
Family
systems to address various issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, parenting, and domestic violence.
Often, we rely on our natural supports for guidance however soon we realize, it is not helpful, perhaps because they say what they think we want to hear, and that’s not beneficial. I believe that for change to occur we must gain insight and self-awareness into the problem and that the therapeutic relationship between a client and therapist is essential. Despite the adversity you have encountered you deserve to live your best life and experience the best version of you. My role is to implement the most appropriate strategies and interventions and use my 17 years of experience in community mental health to support and guide you.

Through the use of Adlerian/
Family
Systems therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and other forms of talk therapy, success can be attainable.
Things happen to us everyday which impact and change who we are and how we live in this world. Twenty plus years of working in this field with individual's of diverse ages, cultures and back grounds have proven this to be true. I believe my role as a therapist is to support others in identifying "their" purpose. The passion for guiding others in identifying positive choices and making healthy changes is "my" purpose.

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.
