Doing this work is hard, even when we have friends and family as support.
Many people come to therapy after experiencing loss…of a loved one, a relationship, a job, a dream. They also tend to come when they are ready to tackle heavy things in their lives, when they realize their unhealthy patterns are holding them back and it’s time to face them. As some point, we hit a wall and realize how we’re functioning in the world is hindering us from going further, growing more and being happy. This is where I can help.

Hi, I'm an early career therapist who specializes in neurodivergent folks and those who love them! Neurodivergence comes with unique challenges, but also some awesome strengths. I help those with ADHD and ASD learn to swim with the current, and stop swimming against it. I also help spouses, parents, and siblings of neurodivergent people improve communication and strengthen those relationships. I use several therapy methods to help create a cohesive relationship where everyone feels respected and heard. I'm looking for people who are struggling with neurodivergence and want to realign themselves in a positive way!

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.
