As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe in the healing process that can unfold in a therapeutic relationship.
I am passionate in assisting individuals, children, teens, families and couples to strive for their best self by making use of their strengths and encouraging compassion. Life and relationships are full of challenging, yet rewarding transitions. These transitions provide an opportunity to better understand ourselves and to strengthen our relationships. When we recognize and understand our patterns of behavior we can then decide how we want to address them.

I work with many clients who are struggling with issues that are holding them back and keeping them from experiencing joy and peace. I work with teens and adults who struggle with feelings of inadequacies, perfectionism, depression, anxiety, ADHD symptoms, mood disorders and more. Some are trying to navigate life transitions, school and peer relationships, grief, marital issues, blending of families and family relationships in general. Many are not looking for a diagnosis; just someone who is willing to listen and help them process through their feelings and emotions. No-one knows YOU better than you. Let me help you find your 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.
