Everyone encounters challenges in their life that may feel overwhelming. Seeking the help of a therapist during these times is a sign of strength, as it suggests the willingness to address problems rather than avoid them. Therapy can be a time of learning about yourself, facing your fears, and growing in different areas of life. I see my role as empowering you to achieve your best possible life. I enjoy working with my clients' strengths and goals to help them create happiness and health in their lives. I can help strengthen your positive coping strategies and regain a more balanced life.

In these challenging times, many people have experienced some level of distress or trauma; if left untreated and unattended to, this can create interpersonal distress, emotional symptoms, or other unhelpful patterns that can alter our ability to live our best lives. If you feel weighed down by feelings of anxiety, depression, or have experienced or are currently experiencing a traumatic life event, understand that these emotions are temporary. It is pivotal to give reverence to these emotions in order to process trauma and heal.

Relational Therapists

How does relational therapy work?

Relational therapy was developed by psychologist Jean Miller, whose ideas stressed that having strong connections with others encourages better health and well-being when compared with a lonely existence. Conversely, poor interpersonal relationships do not foster growth and learning. Relational therapy also encourages trust in others and patience with others, along with better communication and less conflict.

Is relational therapy evidence-based?

Relational therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral or acceptance and commitment therapy. However, relational therapy uses techniques found in cognitive behavioral therapy as well as psychodynamic therapy, which are both well-studied with empirical research.

How long are people typically in relational therapy?

Clients may see improvement after a few weeks or months of therapy. Like cognitive behavioral therapy, relational therapy can reduce symptoms within 10 to 20 weeks, at 45 to 50 minutes once a week. But like any type of therapy, improvement depends on the person and the severity of the problem.

Does relational therapy work?

While no therapy type will work for everyone, some evidence suggests that this therapy can be effective. Relational therapy can help a person manage problematic relationships as well as the mental health conditions that accompany difficult relationships like depression or anxiety. This therapy type may offer benefits that are hard to measure but can be just as valuable—including feelings of higher self-worth or healthier connections with others.
