I am trained in Internal Family Systems and can help clients identify what parts of themself are holding them back from achieving their greatest potential.
Are you or your child struggling with anxiety, self-harm, depression, substance use, defiant behaviors, and more? These issues can override the ability for kids and teenagers to just be kids.

I love working with kids and adults who want to find the joy in life again. I also enjoy working with families to rebuild healthy communication and family dynamics, ensuring each individual can be successful.

This approach is frequently combined with cognitive behavioral therapy as well as a family system's approach.
Choosing the right therapist is like choosing the right medical doctor. You are placing your emotional health in the hands of another person. You want someone you feel comfortable with because you will be sharing very personal things and one who has experience working with the issues you need addressed. Let me help you navigate that process. My philosophy is that individuals come into treatment with a complaint, but this is a surface symptom, not the core issue or driving force. This is what must be revealed and worked through to gain and sustain physical and emotional 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.
