My specialties include child and adolescent social-emotional development, mood disorders (anxiety and depression), family dynamics, and substance use disorders(SUD).
No matter how hard we try, sometimes we feel stuck dwelling on thoughts and feelings that we know hinder us from being able to move forward in our lives. I believe that therapy is a space for those that feel stuck to not only develop health coping skills, but also assess the impact that their life experiences might've had on their worldview and behaviors. I want to hold space for you to explore, unlearn and grow at a pace that is right for you.

As a practitioner of Internal Family Systems therapy, I help clients identify and release core beliefs that cause anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger, guilt, perfectionism, and/or addiction. I strongly believe that our pasts influence our present. The lens through which we interpret ourselves, other people, and the world around us is developed in childhood and sometimes needs adjustment as we evolve throughout the lifespan. With IFS therapy, we will uncover and challenge the lessons you learned as children that keep you feeling stuck, scared, sad, and not good enough.

In therapy sessions, I typically use CBT, DBT and family therapy modalities to explore client’s thoughts, feelings and behaviors to provide insight into the connection between these three entities as well as provide skills to regulate emotions, improve relationships, handle stress, and live mindfully (focusing heavily on acceptance of emotions).
Are you and/or your child open to the challenging and vulnerable, but beautiful journey that is exploring/bettering overall mental health? If so, you've come to the -not-so- perfect place! I most enjoy working with clients who can appreciate humor and straight-forwardness, as I often approach the therapeutic relationship with authenticity and acceptance as well as the mindset of embracing imperfection. I specialize in individual and family therapy focusing on ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress/trauma for individuals under the age of 30 :)

Life can be rough sometimes and asking for help is often the most difficult thing to do. I understand how difficult it is to ask for help and recognize the strength it takes to ask for it. I am a clinical social worker who can help break down the walls of confusion, fear, anxiety and anger to overcome life's daunting issues. I have 9 years of experience working with children, adolescents and families in a variety of settings. I have also worked helping people adjust to life's transitions- death of a family member, job change and relationship issues.

If you feel like your recipes for life have failed, you are at an important growth point. This is the crossroad where "expectations" and "reality" meet. You are not lost, you are right where you are supposed to be. You have probably been here before but this time you are paying attention. The vehicle that brought you here involves your relationships with yourself and others including love, family, work, friendships and spiritual relationships. A clear sign that you are stuck at the "expectation" vs "reality" intersection is when you are unable to move beyond disappointment, frustration, anxiety, anger, exhaustion and inertia.

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.
