It has been pointed out to me by clients, colleagues, family and friends that they find it easy to talk to me. It is not uncommon for strangers to share there challenges and successes with me after a few words of casual conversation. If I were to list what I thought allows me to build rapport so easily, I would have to say that I believe it is because people are able to sense that I care about them genuinely. As a therapist, I care about seeing each one of my clients reach the goals that they set for themselves.

Systems Therapy concentrates on family dynamics because none of us lives in a vacuum.
Life can be daunting and stressful, and there are solutions. I believe it is within us all to become energized to lead happy, productive lives. Sometimes we need some extra support to reach our goals. My favorite part about being a psychotherapist is helping people realize their strengths and become empowered to lead healthy lives. This power is within all of us, and I can help you tap into it. I have a very broad background in the mental health field for the past 30 years. My practice gravitates toward helping people who are in relationship with people who have Narcissistic personality traits.

I am trained in individual, couples, and family therapy.
It is my intent to raise awareness about mental health issues. Why is it important (glad you asked)? Because it affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. Let’s reduce the stigma related to mental illness. The more we talk about mental health conditions, the more normalized it becomes. Starting the conversation is the first step. Let’s talk!

Do you feel anxious, disconnected from life or loved ones, or find yourself constantly reacting to those around you? Do you find that you don’t feel like yourself but can’t seem to figure out why? You may have unhealed trauma. Trauma is just a fancy word meaning ‘wound.’ Similar to physical trauma, emotional wounds exist in our mind and body. So no, you are not ‘crazy.’ Unhealed trauma can lead us to hold negative stories about ourselves, others, and even God. Maybe you feel frozen or stuck in one aspect of your story and wonder why you can’t ‘just move on’ from something that happened to you, or from something going on inside you.

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.
