Some areas where I can help: • Grief & Loss • Spiritual Counseling and Coaching, Transition & Growth • Compassionate and Effective Communication with Aging Parents, Spousal & Family Caregiving and Facilitating Family Meetings • End of Life Concerns • Caregiver Burnout • Relationship Concerns • Life Transitions • Sexual Identity Concerns and Questions.
Becoming aware of our beliefs and behaviors can support our overall mental and physical wellbeing. We all face transitions at various life stages. I also recognize the quality care and support that is beckoning within the aging community, which includes aging with unconditional acceptance, support and guidance for aging families and promoting self-care for caregivers.

I carried a Family Reconciliation contract with the State of Washington for years, working closely with families and troubled adolescents.
I have worked with individuals, couples, and families for more than 20 years, helping people to become the healthy, productive people they were meant to be. Good therapy is hard work, requiring a safe environment, a trusting therapeutic relationship, and mutual respect. It can be the most rewarding work someone will ever enter into. I want to be the therapist for people who are willing to work to achieve their most desired goals, be it individual growth, compatible, productive relationships, or a more peaceful and nurturing family life.

Through an eclectic approach utilizing cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems-based modalities, I explore current problems within the social, cultural, and environmental context of life experiences and the impact these experiences have on both physical and mental health.

It wasn't until I received help from a counselor that I started my journey of healing that lead to my discovery of an authentic self who could practice healthy relationships, acceptance, love, and feel worthy from the inside out. At that point I chose to become a Counselor so as to assist others in their journeys of self discovery.

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.
