Hello there, my hope is that I can help you reach the quality of life you are seeking. Yes, life does come with challenges. So that you are not alone, I provide individual and family therapy. I have been practicing for over a decade. I specialize in most traumas that adults and children experience; especially with children and adolescents who are in foster care or have been adopted into a loving home. Many times, the families I have engaged with feel blind-sided realizing love is not the only need that will heal the hurting, mistrusting heart.

I’m here to assist you in bringing balance and harmony back into your marriage and family life.
Throughout the past two decades of working with youth and families, I’ve always felt a great sense of urgency to help strengthen families and the communities they live in. We need stronger marriages, better co-parenting, healthy family relationships, and access to more community resources. I help couples strengthen their marriage/relationship by learning new ways to communicate and better understand each other to build solutions. Together, we will identify what's working and what's not working, and take smaller steps to bring about bigger changes.

Life is not always what we want or expect it to be, there are times when one's path is unclear and finding one's way becomes quiet difficult. However, if you keep on doing what you've always done, you will keep on getting what you have always gotten. If you are not living your best life it is time to make a committment to yourself and dedicate the time and energy to increase the quality of your life. I provide a safe and nuturing enviornment in which positive change can occur. Making yourself priority is absolutely a necessity.

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.
