We work together to address low self-esteem, stress, social skills challenges, self-isolation, symptoms of trauma, and family change issues.
As a licensed psychologist, I offer counseling and assessment services for adults, children, couples, and families. I believe it is critical to recognize each person's diverse needs and unique background. I aim to foster an environment of understanding by guiding clients to gain awareness and develop coping skills. Together, we explore how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are interconnected. As clients begin to recognize patterns in thinking, feeling, and behavior, they practice effective coping skills. When clients apply the skills they have learned, they build confidence, overcome personal obstacles, and thrive.

I have been working with toddlers, children, adolescents and their families for over 15 years providing therapy, parent support, and assessment. I take a collaborative warm approach. I have been trained in many evidence based treatments and bring the knowledge I’ve learned to each of my sessions. Knowing that one size doesn’t fit all and every person is uniquely different. My goal is to meet patients where they are, understand their needs, and work together through change in a supportive environment.

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.
