I try to make the process of starting therapy as straight forward and welcoming as possible. My approach is to get to know you by creating an atmosphere where you can speak freely about your life. Everybody has frustrations, doubts, aches, unpredictable circumstances, and a desire for growth and connection. Without proper attention, these difficulties can sometimes develop into depression, anxiety, and destructive behaviors. I believe in the importance of enduring relationships, meaningful work, balance, creativity, and taking good care of yourself. I am available for consultations, individual therapy, couples therapy, group therapy, and referrals to family therapy and psychiatric care.

As we move through life, we may find ourselves in moments of confusion about who we are, where we're going, and wondering if we can meet the new challenges and experiences that await us. Pursuing an education, establishing a career, dating and forming lasting relationships, ending relationships, starting a family – each new chapter in the book of our lives can be incredibly uncomfortable AND deeply exciting! But sometimes you need help avoiding the overwhelm, over-thinking, and confusion accompanying change so you can master your mind, turn desire into action, keep progress steady, and your relationships vibrant and connected.

If your child/family is experiencing some struggles, coping with these difficulties is challenging for both the parent(s) and the child.
Youth experience a variety of transitions, challenges, and pressures. Coping with such difficulties while going to school and managing relationships is hard. Kids may show symptoms of anxiety, mood changes, behavior problems, struggles with friends, or trouble in school as a result. I want to help youth and their families get back on track. My primary approach is CBT, which focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behavior all work together and affect our mental health. Although I use treatments backed by research, I believe my relationship with my clients is the foundation of our work together.

Parenting Therapists
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.
When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.
How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
