I am an Attorney and a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist.
Is stress taking a toll on your relationships? Do you believe that the communication between you and your partner needs improvement? Let's talk! Are you having trouble adjusting to a new baby? Is your child having problems in school or is your teen acting out? Let's talk! Are you overwhelmed with responsibilities? Is depression or anxiety preventing you from living the life you want to live? Let's talk! Moving forward may be difficult, but seeking therapy is a great beginning. It would be my privilege to become your partner in change.

I believe in the importance of the FAMILY unit.
Nothing is more interesting than people. Although I love math, physics, engineering, and chemistry, I chose to study psychology because of the challenge and importance of understanding what it means to be human. My Doctorate in clinical psychology was followed by a post-doctoral Master's in clinical psychopharmacology. I have advanced training in evidenced-based therapies for couples, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (Sue Johnson's EFT) and the Gottman method (level 3).

As a family & marriage counselor, I specialize in communication issues, recovering from a betrayal or affair, rekindling lost passion by identifying the root of the problems, and providing tangible tools for change.
Are you looking to re-connect with your partner? Maybe arguments feel like they never get resolved resulting in topics that are too hot to address, so you either avoid them or get in the same fight all the time. Maybe there was a betrayal that caused the loss of trust and this is causing arguments and heart ache. Things may have changed after having your first baby, or maybe you're an empty nester, but what you know is that you want to communicate, have fun together, and connect like you used to. You have tried everything and you are wondering how to recover from it. What if you could get it all back?

You value emotional and health well being for your family and for yourself, and as such, you want every one of your family members to be in a good place. Emotional well-being has many facets. As a parent, you may be worried about your child or teen because lately they look somewhat sad or anxious, or their behavior is not where you think it should be for their age. Or you may want to work on finding your best version of yourself or enhance your relationship with a loved one that may be stuck in a problem narrative you would like to see change.

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.
