My graduate school training included a family, relational, and systems orientated approach to treatment (I believe context and environment matters).
Clients will feel a sense of caring and unconditional positive regard when in session with me. I recognize there is a delicate balance between being an empathetic listener and expert coach of skills; I hope to bring a collaborative approach to our work together. Clients have told me they feel supported by me without feeling that I have an “agenda” for them. I am most passionate about supporting individual adults through relational concerns, attachment issues, traumatic experiences, and symptoms of anxiety/depression. I also enjoy working with children and their parents utilizing play therapy interventions.

Whether you're seeking support for individual challenges, couples therapy, or family counseling, I want to facilitate meaningful conversations that promote healing and growth.
The journey toward personal growth and emotional well-being can be messy. Healing comes through real relationships based on trust and mutual respect. With this focus, integrating psychodynamic and relational counseling, I value the importance of understanding the unique dynamics that shape your relationships and influence your overall well-being. I don't want counseling to feel disconnected from real-world applications.

A person acts and reacts based on their knowledge, experiences and the world in which they live. That tells me that each person is unique. I utilize elements of many techniques to help individuals better understand themselves and the situations they have been in and are currently in. We can't change our past or others. However, we can gain knowledge, insight and skills to improve ourselves and help us cope with what we can't change. My goal is to aid you in identifying and learning skills to help you grow and live a happier life.

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.
