Life doesn’t come with a roadmap for navigating day to day stressors, transitions, relationships, or parenthood. At times, it can feel overwhelming or heavier than expected. You may find yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, mood changes, relationship or family stress, perinatal or postpartum challenges, or emotional patterns that feel hard to shift. If you’re exhausted trying to manage it all on your own, you don’t have to. Therapy offers a supportive space to better understand your experiences, gain insight, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Are you worried about your child and struggling to find ways to help him/her? Does your son or daughter seem unusually sad, angry, have trouble making and keeping friends, or following rules? Sometimes after a change or trauma children express their difficulties through negative behaviors. As parents, we all want our kids to feel good about themselves and be successful. Sometimes its easy to lose sight of a child's strengths and positive attributes. I'm passionate about helping struggling kids and families get back on a positive track in a fun and engaging way.

Psychotherapy is a profession whose mainspring is love. Nearly everyone who visits a therapist has a love disorder, and each has a story to tell of love lost or denied, love twisted or betrayed, love perverted or shackled to violence. I use holism to help the patient reconnect, remember and reimagine. Much of what causes us distress comes from a lack of integration with our biological, psychological, social, and spiritual selves. I am excited about partnering with you in your journey of finding wholeness.

If you are considering therapy, it is likely that something significant in your life is not going the way you want it to, and you've not been able to change or resolve it on your own. It may be a troubled relationship, stress related to job/school/family situations, the lingering effects of past or recent traumas–or something else–and involve feelings of worry, sadness, anger, distrust, frustration, loneliness or low self-esteem. If you want things to be different, change is possible. Careful, attentive therapy can help you find relief from negative feelings, improve relationships and problem-solving, and build hope for the future.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.

What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.

How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.

What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
