"Therapy offers a safe space away from the responsibilities of your daily life, where you can process, recalibrate, and practice new skills. One of my specialties is assisting people in difficult life transitions such as divorce, career change, death of a loved one, or a phase of life transition to name a few. Together, I can help you find some acceptance of the new condition, grieve losses, and find some hope for the new. With couples & families, my goal is to create space for us to slow down, understand the negative cycle you might be stuck in and build in ways of communicating where everyone can feel heard. "

""Why now?" This is a question I always begin with. Yes, it is such a simple question, yet I often find that the source that maybe drove you to search for a therapist is just hitting the surface of what actually lies underneath. Most people are unaware of what ignites their day-to-day emotions/behaviors. For example, individually, we may continually find ourselves in self destructive behaviors or dysfunctional relationships and wonder why or how we ended up here again."

If you're looking for family therapy in San Diego or for a San Diego family therapist these professionals provide family therapy services and structural family therapy services. They include family therapists and marriage family therapists. Therapists in San Diego using the techniques of 'family therapy' (also referred to as marriage and family therapy and family counseling) view change in terms of the systems of interaction between family members.

Family relationships often affect psychological well-being and, regardless of the origin of an issue, or whether it may be the "individual" or "family" who is presenting it, involving the family in the solution can be of great benefit. Families participate directly in sessions during which the family therapist helps conversations in a way that draws upon and builds the strengths, wisdom and support of the wider family unit.

How can I tell if a therapist is right for me?
Therapists in San Diego are able to work with a wide range of issues.

For example, if you're seeking a marriage counselor in San Diego you'll find that most therapists are trained in marriage counseling or couples counseling in San Diego and couples therapy. And they welcome families for family counseling in San Diego or family therapy in San Diego.
