I utilize a Person-Centered, Trauma Focused, Cognitive-Behavioral approach and where appropriate I utilize elements of mindfulness, family interventions, and even personal interests.
As a therapist my driving passions are to help people overcome trauma, de-stigmatize mental health, and advocate for counseling, not just as a means of addressing mental illness but as a tool for self-exploration, healing, and growth. I know that therapy, or any commitment to change for that matter, can be scary and uncomfortable at times but I provide a calming space and an empathetic and unconditionally caring partner in your journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth. I truly believe that counseling can be a means to a better, more satisfying and comfortable life for everyone.

I primarily utilize Somatic Experiencing (SE), Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to guide your process.
Life is hard and many times we aren’t taught how to navigate this human experience. Without the knowledge of how to process and manage emotions, connect with others, handle conflict, and love and believe in ourselves, among other things, we are left to roam with limited direction. This is exacerbated by experiences in which we were invalidated, dehumanized, abused, and neglected. As a result, we may experience persistent emotional pain, disconnect, and lack of confidence impacting our daily lives, relationships, sense of self, and work.

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.
