As we are all human beings and have taken falls throughout life and required help getting back up. There is no one perfect in this world as we all have faced obstacles in challenges throughout life many dealing with trauma, stressors, mental health issues, and so on. I know the feeling of not being able to trust others and feeling like you are struggling alone, and others do not understand what you are going through. Trust is the essential ingredient in reaching out to someone for help taking the steps towards wellness, and I do believe that I am that one that can help you through your journey to recovery.

Emotional intelligence shapes how you think, feel, and show up in your relationships—and when it’s off, everything feels harder. You may find yourself overthinking, reacting instead of responding, struggling to communicate, or feeling disconnected despite your efforts. I work with individuals and couples who are ready to stop repeating patterns and start doing the deeper work. This isn’t surface-level therapy. It’s a focused, intentional process of building self-awareness, emotional control, and clarity so you can show up differently—and create lasting change.

My work has extended to include treatment with individuals, couples, and parent child work.
Treatment with me begins with a thoughtful and respectful assessment of the stresses you face followed by a plan that is linked to frameworks in the field that have evidence to support their effectiveness. Sometimes talking is not enough if it is not embedded in a connection and a framework that is useful and effective; this is what I offer my patients.

Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapists
Does parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT) work?
PCIT is an evidence-based treatment that has been shown to be effective across domains, including for children with behavioral problems, those on the autism spectrum, and those who have experienced early childhood trauma. Further, studies have found that the skills developed through PCIT benefit not only the child in therapy but also siblings, as the parent internalizes lessons learned in sessions and is able to incorporate them into interactions with other family members.

How long does PCIT last?
The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and treatment lasts, on average, between 12 and 20 sessions. Factors that influence treatment duration include how regularly a client attends treatment, how much progress is achieved between sessions, the particular skills that need development, and the extent to which the parent and therapist see improvement.

Can PCIT be done online?
PCIT is among the therapy types best suited for video sessions. Therapists are able to communicate with parents with essentially the same ease, and by observing the parent and child at home in their normal environment, the therapist may gain additional insight into their interactions, as the child will have their normal toys and may feel more comfortable and act more naturally than they would in a therapist’s room.

Does PCIT help parents?
In addition to the skills parents develop through the treatment, PCIT has also been shown to reduce frustration, stress, and depression in parents and promote confidence and a sense of calm when dealing with their children. The desired outcomes of PCIT include a reduction in defiant and aggressive behavior by children and an improvement in communicating their feelings productively, complying with parental instruction, and behaving according to parents’ rules. Growth in these areas can be a relief for parents.
