Family Therapy in 85142

I strongly believe in the importance of the family. Each individual is important in the family system and brings a different dynamic into it. I enjoy working with individuals and families: both parent/child and sibling relationships. While I am most passionate about working with individuals suffering with trauma/PTSD, anxiety/depression, the family relationship needs support as well, particularly with challenging children. Sometimes an outside perspective can help us see things differently. Challenges in a family are guaranteed, but with some encouragement and support, we can become stronger through those challenges.

If you're ready to become your best self, I'm here to help. In our sessions, you will feel heard, cared for and supported on your journey to personal growth and meaningful change. I focus on each client's unique values and strengths. My approach is authentic, direct and empathic. I believe everyone has the power to be genuinely happy and I challenge my clients to take control of their own happiness. Using a combination of cognitive, behavioral and emotionally focused therapy, I help clients develop the necessary tools to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.

I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist, specially trained in working with couples & individual women ages 18-50. Some areas I specialize in are: couples work (masculine and feminine polarity, conflict skills, deepening understanding), sex therapy, parenting, phase of life anxiety, dating, becoming truly authentic & aligned, building self-compassion, Brainspotting, and healing black & white, shame-based distortions caused by religious trauma (without encouraging abandoning beliefs). My biggest philosophy is BALANCE- and learning to find “the sweet spot” in tricky, polarizing concepts. I see balance as the “key” to remedying SO much.

I work with couples to address barriers, differences, challenges in their relationships. I work with parents and children to improve family dynamics.

In childhood, our outside shapes the inside, and in adulthood the inside shapes the outside. -Chip Judd I believe that who we are today is shaped by the experiences and relationships we had growing up. Through relationships we can become aware of our own strengths as well as our brokenness from past hurts, hiccups, and hang ups and discover that a part of us yearns to be heard, revealed, and healed.
