Parenting Therapists in Tucson, AZ
Hello! I think the most essential component of therapy is a genuine connection between client and therapist. This means arriving as we are, and trusting that we can bring all of who we are into our time together. My approach is warm, grounded, and integrative. I draw from evidence-based practices to meet you where you are at. I believe in the capabilities of everyone I work with because we all have the power to heal and grow, and at times just need help with our capacity to handle life's oppositions. You are not just a set of symptoms — you are a story in motion. I am honored to be a witness to your narrative.

Life is full of surprises. Some are beautiful and we welcome them with open arms; while others are extremely difficult. Those situations or circumstances change our life in a way that leaves us desolate and sometimes, without knowing what to do. The good news is that you don't have to navigate your problems or situations alone. If you allow me, I will walk along by your side, and together we will cross the dark and difficult paths towards a new beginning. I offer you a professional atmosphere in which you will be treated with dignity and without prejudice.

My practice is dedicated almost exclusively to treating OCD and anxiety disorders, as well as supporting parents of highly anxious children.
Have you been wondering why your anxiety won't budge. You’ve tried everything—talking through your feelings, practicing relaxation, following every piece of advice. And yet, the anxiety is still there. You may think What’s wrong with me? Why isn’t this working? Maybe you have OCD and not anxiety. Both shared similar symptoms but the need a different treatment approach.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. About 4% of adults, and nearly 1 in 10 young people between 11 and 24, live with anxiety or related disorders. And many of them share the same painful question—Why am I not getting better?

My orientation is family systems, which means even when there is only one person in my office, I view that person in the context of emotional systems in which he or she is embedded–family, work, friendships–and try to help the person recognize forces that are acting upon them. What are the "rules" of those systems? What expectations did someone grow up with, for example, around marriage and family? What lessons were learned about sexuality and religion, about work and play, fitting in vs. going one’s own way, and all the other challenges and choices that life presents?

What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.
When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.
How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
