Therapy is a gift. Its power is rooted in our ancestry, biology, and deep capacities to relate to one another. It isn't something scientists devised in a laboratory. It's a natural process we each have the right to enjoy by simple virtue of being human.

My practice is based on the premise that any issue presented in therapy has deep emotional and psychological roots. At times these roots are recognized; mostly, not. The clients who achieve the highest degree of success in terms of resolution of presenting issues, personal growth, life satisfaction, and relationship enhancement are those who are willing to overcome resistance and emotional discomfort in order to root out the painful, dysfunctional origins of their presented issues, The courage, persistence, and resilience displayed during their therapeutic journey serve them well.

Have you ever had that moment when suddenly you see a situation in a new light and your perspective changes for the better? My aim with therapy is to facilitate that "a-ha" moment for yourself within the struggle that is bringing you into therapy. By providing a validating and trusting space we can be curious about emotions without shaming or shutting them down. We can explore the story we tell ourselves and the meaning we give our lives. Sometimes we can't break out of certain behaviors/anxieties and need an outside, non-judgmental observer to help us see our patterns because we are "in it" and too close to see the big picture.

Every parent dreams of raising their children in ways that enable them to not only survive, but to thrive. As life unfolds, parents may encounter personal difficulties, or problems related to their children, that compromise their ability to provide consistent, responsive care. They may then be susceptible to feelings of overwhelm and discouragement. I offer families a compassionate, collaborative, strength-based therapeutic approach. I respectfully join with them in the belief that "We are in this together, and together, we will find our way through."

Most conflict involves relationship: a relationship with ourselves, our parents, our children, our lovers, our bosses, our co-workers. This is the one area where education fails us. We inhabit an adult body with a child's knowledge of how to interact with the world and ourselves and that is where a therapist's knowledge can be beneficial. "Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it" (Rumi). I can help a client find and diminish those barriers.

Good For You! You have taken the first step: You are asking for help at a time when life challenges have caused you to pause and reflect. Life can feel out of balance, leaving us with feelings of despair, anxiousness and loss. Our basic human needs are those of connecting to others. We feel pain and discomfort when we feel separated. It takes courage to look at ourselves, to find the meaning of the discomfort. This struggle can have profound lasting results for personal growth, better health, and closer relationships with our family, friends and the community at large.

Therapy is a creative, supportive, collaborative process that helps us learn new ways of perceiving a problem, develop healthy coping skills, find healthy ways of being with the people in our lives, and learn about ourselves. We might need an empathetic ear, or we might need specific tools. Either way, therapy empowers us and helps us remember our personal strengths and what we stand for. We are all different; each person's gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, race, religion, and health impact how he or she will perceive an issue. I believe the therapeutic approach, like the people who seek therapy, should be unique.

If you're looking for family therapy in Bellingham or for a Bellingham family therapist these professionals provide family therapy services and structural family therapy services. They include family therapists and marriage family therapists. Therapists in Bellingham using the techniques of 'family therapy' (also referred to as marriage and family therapy and family counseling) view change in terms of the systems of interaction between family members.

Family relationships often affect psychological well-being and, regardless of the origin of an issue, or whether it may be the "individual" or "family" who is presenting it, involving the family in the solution can be of great benefit. Families participate directly in sessions during which the family therapist helps conversations in a way that draws upon and builds the strengths, wisdom and support of the wider family unit.

How can I tell if a therapist is right for me?
Therapists in Bellingham are able to work with a wide range of issues and communities, including the BIPOC community in Bellingham. They offer in person sessions as well as Teletherapy in Bellingham

For example, if you're seeking a marriage counselor in Bellingham you'll find that most therapists are trained in marriage counseling or couples counseling in Bellingham and couples therapy. And they welcome families for family counseling in Bellingham or family therapy in Bellingham.
