You had a vision for yourself and wanted to be living your best life. But you are thinking, “I don’t like how things are playing out right now.” Maybe you are feeling anxious, annoyed, your patience is short, and you are starting to feel depressed. It is possible that some unaddressed past issues are making their way into your present. It’s time to connect with someone who can help you get to know you better so you can understand why you are feeling what you are feeling and explore ways to help you heal. But the deal breaker is you also need someone who will respect your faith and your beliefs.

The ideal client encompasses an individual who wishes to receive assistance and willing to work toward short and long-term goals. I am seeking to work with individuals who are open to suggestions and excited about goal setting as well as goal accomplishments as much as I am. The time is “Now”, so the question I pose to you is “When?"

While I typically use an existential/humanistic theoretical orientation to help you find meaning in the circumstances of your life, I often incorporate behavioral techniques and Internal Family Systems in addition to traditional talk therapy.
Now accepting new clients! Spring is a wonderful time to start making some changes. Often we are successful in one area of our life but feel that another area is not going as well as we would like. Finding balance can leave us feeling overwhelmed. While we are all the experts on our own lives, sometimes we need the perspective of another person in order to see ourselves more clearly. Helping to better understand yourself and the strengths you already possess can lead to positive change which ideally will result in living a more authentic, balanced, and enriching life.

There are times when things are not going as well as we'd like in our family, social or work relationships, particularly post-Covid. You may feel alone, depressed, anxious, or have conflict or discomfort with those you care about. In my psychotherapy practice I help couples, individuals & families restore their sense of well being and connection. People learn how to be more present and intentional in accordance with their values. Partners learn to be safely available to each other through a dialogue process that teaches more effective listening, deeper understanding and empathy. In person and Telehealth meetings are offered.

No matter your reason for beginning your search for a therapist, you have started your journey toward a happier and more fulfilling life. Therapy is meant to free you from the external and internal pressures that keep you locked into painful debilitating patterns. Working with clients to identify and relieve those pressures so that change can happen is something I love and have been doing for many years. In my career, I have worked with individuals and families not only in my private practice, but also at an addiction treatment center where I served as a therapist, family therapy supervisor and, ultimately, clinical director.

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.
