I seek to help clients who are interested in psychological testing and psychotherapy. I strive to use therapeutic assessment procedures that not only help us arrive at a diagnostic conclusion, but also at place where there is a possibility for a new relationship with the difficult condition itself. In providing psychotherapy, I try to emphasize that life's challenges, even the most painful or uncertain, contain the seedlings of new possibilities. As we approach them together, we can open a door to renewed purpose in pursuit of what matters most to you. Don't quit! We can never exhaust our ability to experience something new!

I have 12 years of experience providing individual, group, family therapy and psychological assessment in a variety of settings including a brain injury clinic, a state hospital, a residential treatment program, and a pediatric clinic.
I became a psychologist because I believe in the power of genuine connection. I value addressing how past experiences, family dynamics and cultural influences contribute to belief systems, identities and behavioral patterns that may be causing distress in relationships and inhibiting personal growth. I also see neuro/psychological testing as a tool to better understand individual’s phenomenological experience, to provide clarification of personal strengths and struggles and to guide growth by offering individualized tools, skills and resources.

We develop our interpersonal styles when we are very young. Moving into adulthood, people tend to keep doing what they’ve always done – even if it has stopped working. As a result, they may feel depressed, anxious, and blocked from having the rich life experiences that they crave. In my psychotherapy practice, I work with older adolescents and adults who are struggling in relationships – with parents, employers, friends, or intimate partners - and do not know why or what to do about it. My aim is to help people (1) develop an awareness of their interpersonal styles and (2) find ways to make adaptive change in their lives.

A family-based treatment approach is very important, as the whole family needs to be involved.

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.
