I believe that growth occurs at the edge of our comfort zone. When we become complacent and just "settle", we have cut off our opportunity for happiness. Together, we can discuss obstacles, concerns, and life stressors, whether it be related to work, relationships, trauma, addiction, or life transitions. I strongly believe that it is important to meet each client where they are at. When this occurs, I am able to offer an integrative approach, combining different therapeutic tools and approaches to meet your individual needs. I have experience with and continue to see children (age 5+), adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

You’re driven, capable, and used to figuring things out. But lately, even your usual strategies aren’t cutting it. You’re feeling stuck in patterns—overthinking, overworking, overgiving—and despite your accomplishments, something still feels off. Maybe your relationships feel unbalanced, or you’re tired of holding everything together without space to actually feel your feelings. Therapy isn’t about weakness—it’s about strength. It takes courage to pause, reflect, and intentionally shift long-standing patterns. It’s not just about coping—it’s about evolving.

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.
