I believe that the antidote to distress and maladaptive coping is through connection—both within ourselves and with others. Which is why having a strong bond with your therapist is such an integral part of personal and relational growth. As your therapist, my goal is to provide you with a safe and supportive space where you feel comfortable showing up as your authentic self, exactly where you are—even if you’re not quite sure who or where that is yet. Together, we can explore what really matters to you, define your goals and develop the clarity and skills needed to convert insight into meaningful action.

I see you women warriors. Whether you’re a mom, Millennial, or mover/shaker, you’re running on fumes. Part of you wants something bigger, but you're exhausted. You don’t know if you can do it anymore—if you WANT to do it anymore. The weight of relationships, projects, and activities feels crushing. You're always putting out emotional fires. And you feel anxious, guilty, and pressured ALL-THE-TIME. You dream of having energy again. If peace exists, you'd like to grab a piece of it. You want to break free of the burnout bureaucracy, be enough, and dream bigger dreams-but you're afraid you'll fail if you stop hustling to chase them.

You can’t control it. You desperately want them to move forward, but you just don’t know how to help them anymore. Sports and clubs have been helpful in the past and family is supportive but it’s just not enough. You're considering medication, but not sold on that idea. "Surely, there has to be a different way," you think. "I just want my child to be happy and confidently live their life. I want them to know and believe in how wonderful they are."

Normal is a setting on a dryer. We are all unique and valid with vast minds. We all have different situations and I believe in using those pieces to heal and build strength. While I specialize in trauma, neurodivergence, addiction, and mood, our struggles are usually not that one note or simple. I focus on all aspects of who you and where you want to be, building a strong relationship based on empathy, trust and non judgement. Life is rough, we lose sight of our way, stop seeing the beauty, forget who we are, feel stuck or changed. It takes courage to be vulnerable and reality is we are imperfectly perfect.

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.
