I specialize in supporting individuals, families, and children who have faced trauma, navigated through challenges, coped with divorce, grappled with parenting concerns, or experienced loss.
Life is full of twists and turns, and grappling with overwhelming challenges is normal. Everyone deserves a supportive hand during difficult times—for yourself, your child, your family, or your relationships. Struggling doesn't imply personal flaws; it's a part of the human experience. In those moments when life throws unexpected hurdles your way, it's okay to seek assistance, whether for a brief period or ongoing. I provide a reset button and a secure space where we can collaboratively develop and implement a personalized plan to help you achieve your goals. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.

What drew me to the counseling field was my passion to advocate for people who have experience trauma (relational, spiritual, physical, sexual, emotional, and more). I take an integrative approach, meeting you wherever you are in the process and tailoring treatment based on my extensive training in trauma modalities. I cherish this process and helping survivors heal. As a mother of two, I have plenty of material to pull from and am equally passionate about working with parents, especially those who are facing parenting transitions and blended families. With support, validation and humor, I can help make parenting fun again.

One of my core beliefs is that no two people are the same, not even identical twins, or siblings who have lost a parent, or parents who have lost a child, or even those who share the same diagnosis.
Perhaps confusion of the past, the unknown of the future, or inability to make sense of what is happening now led you here. One thing you should know is that, so often, people enter my office weathering one of their largest storms to date. Or maybe, it’s not their largest storm, but a battle continuously claiming defeat. It’s exhausting; life can absolutely be exhausting. Walking through those doors, meeting someone you don’t know, and sharing your life story with them can also be unsettling.

Seeing your kid struggle is one of the toughest things to do as a parent or caregiver. Our children cannot always express their thoughts and feelings through words, and this can lead to frustration and confusion for both parent and child. Children express their thoughts and feelings through play and their toys are their words. When we allow children to play alongside therapeutic interventions, children can tell us so much about what is going on in their lives. Whether your child is experiencing grief, sadness, anxiety, anger, or school problems, they deserve some extra help!

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.
