I am a progressive relationship coach, family systems psychotherapist utilizing refined knowledge of Bowen Family Systems Theory to help families understand and navigate difficult and distressing challenges.
Is your concern a relationship dilemma? A problem with a child? Substance abuse, anxiety or depression? Symptoms-physical, emotional, or social-are embedded in relationship processes in the family. The goal is to modify the process, which can lead to a reduction in symptoms. When one person in a relationship makes the decision to "show up" in a more deliberate, thoughtful way, the dynamic will change. Any motivated client can become that person. I will lend a hand in your effort through an understanding of relationships and how tension spreads through anxious systems, affecting groups and individuals.

My experience and expertise provides me with tools from DBT, CBT, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Family Systems, addiction, and attachment approaches to help adolescents and adults achieve best outcomes.
Life can feel chaotic. Whether you are considering your first time in treatment, continuing or returning to treatment, my goal is to provide you with the platform and skills to effectively evaluate, identify and create solutions to help you. It’s important to remember that therapy is not always about ‘fixing’ a problem. Sometimes, it is about learning how to work with the problem by creating awareness, strengthening insight, developing or broadening skills you already have. It is a joint effort between the therapist and the client, working together, to impact change and bring balance to what may otherwise feel out of control.

Exploring inter-generational family systems and historical trauma is also important to our work together.
You are only human. This means needing secure, safe attachments with others in order to thrive. You want freedom from addiction, anxiety, depression, or trauma. You’re experiencing conflicts in your most important relationships. These problems often block us from feeling confident or thinking clearly. You may be out of energy trying to fix what's not working and need a new perspective to resolve these difficulties. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I support individuals and relationships through solution-focused and strengths-based approaches.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
