As a child and family therapist, I specialize in child therapy helping children to cope with depression, anger, anxiety, school, social and behavioral problems, a divorce, a death, and other family issues. I am a parenting expert and help parents to understand their child's behavior and difficulties and teach them skills for communicating positively with their child. I provide couple and family counseling focused on strengthening family relationships and joint problem solving. Using a psychodynamic approach, I help adults to understand their own early childhood experiences, so they can overcome emotional roadblocks and communicate positively with other family members.

My clinical interests include intimacy difficulties in couples, parenthood, blended families and family therapy.
I keep an open mind, I am flexible and I am a good listener. I like to take all theories into account and apply them to one particular person. I do not believe in formulas, each individual is unique and deserves a unique understanding.
I also like to have a plan of action that I discuss with my client in the beginning of treatment. Clients have told me that they have gained better understanding of their dynamics and developed stronger sense of self after treatment.

Therapy is about easing suffering, increasing insight and curiosity, and finding meaning. This work is best done in the context of a trusting and strong therapeutic relationship. As a therapist, I strive to form a genuine and unique bond with everyone I work with. I am an active therapist, who aims to be open, non-judgmental, and flexible. Cultural norms, identity, and context will deeply inform how we work together. My specialty areas include: life transitions, navigating the perinatal period, early parenthood, grief, and bi/cultural identity exploration and development.

As a therapist, I've come to deeply appreciate the inherent messiness and imperfection of being human. We all carry quirks, shadows, inconsistencies - and that's okay. My role is not to judge or fix, but to create a safe space where you can explore all of who you are with acceptance and compassion. I aim to provide a balance of practicality and profundity in my work. On a practical level, I'll share tools, frameworks, and insights from evidence-based modalities to help shine light on core issues. But I also believe therapy should allow for transcendence - those profound "aha" moments where you glimpse a deeper truth about yourself.

Do you feel you're at an inflection point in your life?

That, no matter how much you have achieved, those feelings of inadequacy are still nagging at you? My goal is to help you take charge: to put your "inner critic" in its place – and achieve a genuine, sustainable sense of well-being.

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.
