Do you want to feel confident in yourself & your relationship with loved ones? Maybe you're a self identified perfectionist or people pleaser, struggle to say no or express your feelings.

From family to intimate partners, friendships, & most importantly the relationship with yourself, I am here to help.

I help facilitate change so family members can move out of rigid roles and towards more authentic and satisfying relationships.
My expertise is working with couples and individuals who want to improve their communication and resolve conflict harmoniously. Strong emotions such as anger, depression, and anxiety can stymie resolution or reconciliation. Are you both committed to your relationship, but struggling to resolve a conflict or get along? Learning how to process the dynamics in your relationships can empower you to make the changes you desire - including recovery from infidelity. I get excited when I have the opportunity to help couples find connection in the midst of the conflict.

I work with individuals, couples and families utilizing family history, current situational processes as well as personal strengths and coping skills to address issues of concern. I believe all individuals have the capacity to make changes in their lives and will work on helping each individual gain a better understanding of his/her needs and behaviors to attain those goals.

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.
