The core direction of my work is through connection and compassion, focusing on individualizing interventions and developing strategies for non-violent communication, achieving life balance and self-acceptance. My style is compassionate; my direction is fostering family closeness. Clients will collaborate in therapy to set goals and create their own treatment plan. I have experience with grief and loss, life changes, and I am also a compassionate support for those dealing with existential changes. One focus and emphasis of treatment is using mindfulness to process experiences.

Together we will collaborate on identifying new solutions for your personal, and family’s journey through life.
I believe 80% of life is not about what happens to us, but instead is more about how we respond to it. Hence, it is not our problems that need the most help, but instead our solutions to those problems; it’s okay to be afraid. As a Behaviorist, I see "fear" of “something” as what drives our behaviors in life, i.e. fear in life demands control of life using a previously learned response. It is that perceived need for complete control where we tend to lose control of our most basic solutions and the need to respond differently arises; hence, we bring on change, with empathy for our vulnerabilities being at the forefront.

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.
