As a trauma therapist trained in EMDR, I specialize in helping individuals gently process and heal from difficult life experiences. My work is rooted in an attachment-based perspective, meaning I believe that feeling safe, understood, and connected in therapy is an essential part of healing. I work with teens, adults, veterans, and military-connected individuals to create a supportive space where you can explore your experiences and move toward meaningful healing. I strive to create a culturally responsive environment where every client feels seen and respected in the context of their identity, family systems, and lived experiences.

I get it! Life is hard and full of transitions. Some transitions are easy and leave you feeling good about yourself and the world. Others, become a series of complex challenges that often turn your life inside out. You start to feel lost and alone as you attempt to navigate the physical, emotional, mental and maybe even spiritual pressures of life. These transitions don’t have to be disastrous. Counseling sometimes presents an opportunity to view things from a different angle. Sometimes it’s all you need to return to normal or to find a “new normal.”

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.
