I’ve been supporting parents since 2006, building on lived experience as a single mom, a stepmom, the mother of a child with complex medical needs, and of a typically developing child.
Being in relationship with others without losing ourselves can be challenging. It is especially hard during periods of transition - when we're taking on a new role, making a major life change, or adjusting to a loss. I listen closely and carefully to support you in your efforts to manage life's peaks and valleys, to find or amplify your voice, and to stay connected to your true self as you navigate change. With humor and compassion, I will guide you toward making conscious choices that align with your values and goals.

Looking for a therapist is HARD, so I'm going to get straight to the point. I might be a good therapist for you if any of the following fit: 1) you have experienced trauma and it is getting in the way of living your life fully, 2) you've had years of talk therapy, but aren't seeing the change that you want in your life, 3) you can't help feeling like you are both "too much" and "not enough" at the same time, 4) you were the "sensitive" or "emotional" one in your family, 5) you hate feeling misunderstood or misinterpreted, and yet this seems to keep happening to you, 6) you struggle to find time for your own interests or self-care.

Sometimes we struggle to express what we need or want out of life. Other times we may feel that we are not living up to expectations. We can get stuck in a loop of our negative thoughts and fears. Building a trusting relationship with a counselor can help you step out of these patterns and bring meaning to your struggles. I really want to know what it’s like to be you; not only your inner life but also how you belong in the world around you. Together we will explore the things that are important to you and move toward the change that you are looking for.

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.
