It's common to feel a lack of focus, become stressed, feel down and not as happy as we once were. We can experience a loss due to death, loss of a marriage or friend and need to go through the grief process. In our current world, often, this can cause anxiety, depression, pain issues or even lead to family difficulties. If you've tried a variety of approaches, yet they have not worked, please try a different approach. If seeking counseling I will help you with suggestions on how to get back to HAPPY again! We have much to offer.

My medical practice first and then my experience as a Reiki Master and psychotherapist, has shown me that the path to a healthy and fulfilling life is a personal journey towards wholeness. A counselor is an ideal companion in such journey. I offer both expertise and compassion. My approach is holistic, since our body is multidimensional: physical/mental/spiritual. A supportive and inclusive environment allows the body's inner wisdom to surface. Increased awareness leads to easing our connection with others, with our multidimensional body, with the planet. Shifting perspective helps us heal past trauma and rebuild relationships.

I view therapy as a collaborative process, as my clients and I work together to identify approaches to improving their lives. By actively listening, providing support and recommendations, then allowing the client to test out new behaviors, we are producing opportunities for new learning and change to occur. I treat adults, both individuals and couples, whose lives are being negatively impacted by depression, anxiety, relationship issues, health issues, and life stress generally. I believe that successful therapy includes supporting and reinforcing clients' strengths as well as addressing problematic symptoms and behaviors.

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.
