Parenting Therapists in Desert Shores, Las Vegas, NV

I received my degree in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage & Family Therapy from Regis University. I enjoy working with a diverse population of adults, children and teens dealing with life issues ranging from depression to post-traumatic stress, victims of abuse, homeless transitioning to parenting frustrations and behavior management. Growth occurs one step at a time and that knowledge of process and circumstances leads to more effective decision-making. I have a passion for assisting victims of abuse (sexual, physical, neglect) in healing and "growing through" to a successful and healthy life.

You may be feeling overwhelmed trying to find the right therapist, but it's an important step in healing. When it comes to therapeutic change, I believe the greatest contributing factor is the relationship between therapist and client. My practice is honest, genuine while being direct. I try to create a comfortable and caring atmosphere. I work with individuals, couples, and families to create new perspectives and insights to reach desired results. My specialties are relationship issues including infertility, postpartum issues, prenatal concerns, parenting, divorce, grief, loss, and trauma.

Are you fearful about pregnancy, birth or motherhood? Is this season of motherhood not what you envisioned? Are you struggling to keep it together as a mom? *You are not alone* Maternal Minds Counseling can help.

Sometimes planning, expecting, new or experienced moms need extra support through this transition. The therapists at Maternal Minds treat women and families from preconception through parenting.

Have you ever wondered why a relationship didn’t work out or why you conflict with a partner? Have you ever wanted to break the cycle of past behaviors and figure out why it happened to begin with?

Thank you for taking the time to read my personal statement. I look forward to working with a diverse group of individuals, couples and families who are in need of a safe place to explore sensitive and challenging issues that are bringing them into therapy. In my opinion, every individual on this website is my ideal client as you have taken the initiative in looking for help. This is a huge first step not only because it shows insight and awareness but motivation for change. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, older adults, couples, LGBTQ+, and complex family structures.

Do any of these behaviors apply to your relationship? We seldom have any sex or intimacy. We only talk about the kids or work, just daily stuff, nothing important. I feel lonely in this marriage. If it weren't for the kids we would be done. Sometimes I think about having an affair, I never thought that would be me. I love my partner but I just don't feel like I am In Love with him/her. I think marriage can get boring, It's just we can't communicate. We either don't talk or we argue.

Too many of us keep our issues hidden and secret for too long. We are not sure where to turn or what the future holds. Stress, anxiety, depression, and existential angst often hold us back from living our best lives. My goal and my passion is to develop a therapeutic relationship with each and every client as an individual. I believe that it is important to focus on the “here and now” and to use the therapeutic relationship to help you grow, be more open and vulnerable in the relationships that you cherish, and to help you live lives consistent with your dreams, aspirations, and values.

Sometimes, events in our lives leave us feeling stuck, helpless, abandoned and alone. At times, emotions can overwhelm us giving us the impression we have no control over those feelings or the world surrounding us. I am passionate about helping people get to the root of the problem one session at a time. I understand every person is different and there is no one size fits all approach to healing. I will work with you in a compassionate and nonjudgmental manner.

Have you not been feeling yourself lately? Sadness, fatigue, low motivation, fear, anxiety, relationship concerns or other life stressors get the best of you at times? Life and its transitions can be tough, but so are you! Therapy can help - let's work together to help you build the life you want for yourself.

Hi, I'm glad you're here. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT). I obtained my master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Cappella in 2014. I have 15+ years’ experience in mental health working in various settings through my career as a therapist including group homes, shelters, schools, in homes, and in an outpatient setting. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults on an individual basis.

Life can be challenging at times, so I would like to invite you to walk together and cross the bridge between chaos and serenity. My primary focus is to create a safe place for you. Then, we will explore and create goals to initiate a positive impact in your life. If you are looking to improve your relationship, overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual abuse, or addiction. I will walk through those issues with you.

My practice supports authentic living. I hope to join with persons and offer my understanding of where they are. Such genuine contact encourages awareness of possibilities that otherwise remain just out of reach. Relationship is central; foundations of healthy relationships include trust, respect, honesty and risk-taking. Persons I sit with commonly say I am supportive and challenging, non-judgmental and honest. Persons with previous therapy experience say that our play together is "different" than their other therapy relationships, perhaps because I fundamentally believe persons are good and have inherent power to grow and change.
