Therapy was not something we talked about in our family.
Do you feel anxious, angry, depressed and fed up with what is happening? Do you drink, use drugs, gamble, or use work as an escape from life? Have you found yourself wondering..."What's the point? or Is this all there is in life?" Are you trying to figure out another way to deal with life, but can't find the answers? If you are looking for someone to be honest, open and understanding then I might be the right person to talk with you.

Reach out for a free consultation and let me know how I can help you, your child or a family member on their desired journey.
Children often do not have the words to express what they are thinking or feeling. Traditional talk therapy alone is rarely successful in helping children process difficult life situations. I help children overcome anxiety, depression, and other challenges. I also assist parents in building strong, open relationships with their children. If your child is going through anxiety, sadness, behavior problems, social issues, or life changes (divorce, loss of a loved one, etc.) I am happy to walk along side them in their journey. In addition to working with children, I also see teens and adults.

I believe that people have the greatest need to be heard, validated and to find a sense of purpose / belonging in life. One of the people who listened to me growing up, one I felt heard me the most was my childhood counselor. There were many things that I grabbed onto growing up to help me through any adversity I faced but that counselor helped me to see that there was something a lot greater in life than some of the experiences that I endured. This is all I can hope to provide to others when I counsel them. Just a sense of hope. Something that they can grab onto, carries them much further than the room we sit in together.

Adulting is hard. Being a kid is hard. Being human is hard. Having access to all of the world all of the time is hard. It’s overwhelming and everyone has an opinion. And sometimes it can just become too much. Every stage of life comes with what seems like insurmountable obstacles. This day and age with the seeming constant comparison to a perfect social media life can leave one feeling impossibly more than less than. Sometimes we just need a little help. A place to sit with our reality without the judgement or the press to have it all.

When you can't connect to people you love, it's painful. It feels like you try to connect, but they get farther away. Life can be hard, and even harder when your past gets in the way of your present and future. Sometimes issues such as being LGBTQ+,culture, religion, or a being a blended family makes relationships harder or more complicated. Sometimes, people need to work through their own "stuff" and sometimes, couples or families need to come together to try and get their relationship back - but an even better one is possible! There is no story with too much shame or guilt to bring to me, I create a safe place for healing!

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.
