I take a Health At Every Size (HAES) and Social Justice approach to counseling in addition to evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Somatic, Internal Family Systems, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy.
Do you struggle with your relationship with your body? Do you often feel anxious or irritable? Do you frequently compare yourself to others and always feel 'less than?' Do you feel caught in a vicious cycle of anxiety and avoidance and can't find your way out? Have you recently been diagnosed with ADHD later in life, or think you may have undiagnosed ADHD? If you answered 'yes' to ANY of these questions, I can help. Struggling with your mental health can feel so isolating - please know you're not alone.

Family can bring much joy but also pain, such as divorce, abuse, neglect, entanglement and more. Gods hope is to restore the Christian home. Often, we want a redo with where we came from but God wants to start the process of healing with you in order to not continue the generational sin, and pain. This is why I became a counselor.

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.
