While I have extensive trauma training, I also have training and experience in depression, anxiety, ADHD, family dynamics, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions.
Life is a roller coaster; full of highs and lows, sometimes we need some help navigating life’s twists and turns. Creating a relationship with a therapist can be daunting and scary; the first step is often one of the hardest. As with life, therapy has ups and downs. My role as a therapist is to provide tools and offer insight. I offer a free 20-minute consultation to provide the opportunity to see if we are a good fit. As I counselor I want each session to feel unique to you. I am trained and certified in may therapeutic modalities in order to provide the most tailored experience.

Family Therapy

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.
