My role is to be side by side with you, your family, or as a couple, navigating these complex emotions and situations so that you can find the joy you deserve and the power in your strengths.
Many of us have been trained to quiet our voice, quiet our body, stuff negativity away or worse bury it. Living in the world we do with impossible expectations placed on us, this cycle is perpetrated by encouraging us to distract ourselves or check out pretending this pain inside of us does not exist. But "the body keeps score", and it will find a way to remind us that this is not acceptable. This is especially difficult if you noticed your relationships are taking a hit or seem to be stagnant. We must end this cycle and create a new cycle of healing. My goal is to be that space where you can be you with all the quirks included.

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.
