Couples and parents face many challenges, not just in raising children, but in their adult relationships as well. Anxiety, stress, conflict, discrimination, disability, loss, grief, and difficult past experiences can affect the way we show up in the world for ourselves and for each other. Gradual work in understanding your nervous system response in a therapeutic and judgement free environment will help improve connection to self, strengthen relationships, reduce reactivity, increase sense of control, and increase confidence in the future.
Working from a systemic perspective, I use a variety of trauma informed therapies including Attachment for parent/child relationships, Child Centered Play Therapy for children, EFT, Gottman, Filial Play Therapy, Art Therapy, and IFS to facilitate a greater understanding of self and others within the context of your relationships.
Asking for help can be the most difficult step, and everyone's journey is unique. Your story is an important one to tell. Reach out today to begin your path to understanding, peace, healing, hope, and change.

I had the pleasure of working with Halley in graduate school and witnessing the warmth, wisdom, and care she brings to every interaction, whether that be with a client, peer, or supervisor. She has a wonderful way of holding a nurturing space for clients.
