Sometimes we can struggle with emotions or behaviors that bother us, and we think to ourselves, "Why can't I just deal with it?". Somehow, we feel worse now, because in addition to having feelings that bother us, we're judging ourselves negatively. If this sounds like you, I would like to help you tap into your inner wisdom and get in touch with what is really going on for you in a way that is free of judgment and liberates you to decide how to be the best version of yourself.

I specialize in helping couples who feel distant, stuck in conflict, or disconnected by stress and parenting.
You’ve likely tried to fix things already—talking more, pulling back, staying calm—but the same painful patterns keep showing up. You start a conversation hoping to feel heard, but it turns into another argument, or one of you shuts down while the other grows louder. You both end up hurt and alone. You want to stop reacting and start reconnecting, and to feel safe, understood, and close again.

I specialize in using CBT and play therapy when working with children, adolescents, and young adults. Young children have limited insight in their ability to discern their current affect; play therapy is a research based, evidence backed method that allows them to express their thoughts and feelings through their natural language: play.

Parenting Therapists
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
