Opening yourself up to someone takes a lot of courage. Just beginning this step, looking for a therapist, shows that courage, whether it's for yourself or a family member. I have worked extensively with children (4+) teenagers, and families over the past 10 years in different mediums. I begin by helping my client to feel safe and and encouraged.

A patient presents with concerns regarding impulsive decision-making and wanting to change relationship patterns. She was recently diagnosed with postpartum after giving birth 30 days prior. She is currently in a relationship with the child's father and reports being unhappy with his parenting skills. She wants to go out on her own but is afraid he will separate her from the child. In therapy, she has clarified that she does not want to share with him at the child's young age.
