I have experience working with high-risk youth and their families in Residential, Community-Based, Outpatient and Child Welfare settings. I have a passion for helping young people increase their resiliency and improve their relationships by gaining insight into their unique strengths and needs, learning new coping skills and improving communication styles.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
