For over 15 years, I specialized in teenagers, trauma tx and family therapy, which is a foundation of my addictions counseling.
Hello, I am a dual licensed psychotherapist; Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Master Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I am trained in CBT, DBT, TF-CBT, MI, and EFT. My current areas of interest and study include IFS, EMDR, and positive psychology. I encourage my clients toward holistic living as a foundation for mental health. My studied belief is we fundamentally know what is good and healthy for ourselves, yet life experiences silence or alienates us from connecting with this core self-wisdom. Talk therapy is a vehicle to understand our wounds, barriers, to learn to listen for our inner wisdom, and to heal.

These shifts could be professional, personal, or relationship stagnation or burnout; moving and/or change in lifestyle (college, career, retirement, COVID-19, etc.); changes within the family or social groups; grief or loss; or unprocessed trauma. I am interested in integrating knowledge of neurobiology, the gut-brain connection, mindfulness practices, and movement into treatment as it is relevant and accessible to clients.

Family Therapy

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
