I have also worked with families with young children providing Early On and Infant Mental Health home-based and community services dealing with parent-child relationship, attachment, behavioral issues and mental health.
Since feelings are first, how are you coping in your current situation, relationship, family, work or culture? Has life or stress "got you down"? Are you Still waiting for some change or Better Days? Then, consider private practice with an experienced and knowledgeable therapist who works with a diverse population dealing with various mental health issues. I work with clients ranging from young children to older adults with issues such as anxiety, family conflicts, behavioral issues, mood disorders, relationships issues, and trauma.

My philosophy involves the sharing of personal problems, concerns, and stories with a counseling professional who is skilled at helping the client come to a resolution or solution about their particular situation. I work primarily through talk therapy in a casual, client-centered environment, avoiding prescriptive "homework" assignments. Instead, I focus on helping clients incorporate desired changes into their daily lives in a practical, achievable way. I also have extensive experience in higher education, providing guidance on the FAFSA process, college applications, and career exploration.

You've been through so much, and you're tired of carrying these heavy emotions on your own. There are days when you find it difficult to cope, and it feels like the weight of the world is on your shoulders. The last thing you need is to feel stuck or helpless. You're not one to back down from a challenge, but there are moments when it all feels overwhelming, and it's hard to keep your resilience intact.

Most of us experience frustration and some degree of disorder in our daily lives. However, what we think about the way we feel will impact the behaviors we engage in and the choices we make. Going through our days feeling overwhelmed and never understood is a choice we make, which for us becomes acceptable when we think too much of what other's will think about us. Can I tell you that this time it is alright to think of yourself first? I counsel with individuals or couples seeking to improve overall mental health well-being and/or strengthen relationships.

It takes courage in recognizing the first step in your journey to healing. Making that initial call and asking for mental support can be daunting, but it is a journey you will continue to grow from throughout your life. I believe there must be a level of comfort and connection between therapist and client in order to feel emotionally safe and vulnerable. Together, we will work on creating a strong alliance that is built on trust, respect, and compassion. Recovery can be challenging, and may feel impossible- creating the space you need to explore your thoughts and behaviors can help you process where your feelings are coming from.

Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapists

Does parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT) work?

PCIT is an evidence-based treatment that has been shown to be effective across domains, including for children with behavioral problems, those on the autism spectrum, and those who have experienced early childhood trauma. Further, studies have found that the skills developed through PCIT benefit not only the child in therapy but also siblings, as the parent internalizes lessons learned in sessions and is able to incorporate them into interactions with other family members.

How long does PCIT last?

The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and treatment lasts, on average, between 12 and 20 sessions. Factors that influence treatment duration include how regularly a client attends treatment, how much progress is achieved between sessions, the particular skills that need development, and the extent to which the parent and therapist see improvement.

Can PCIT be done online?

PCIT is among the therapy types best suited for video sessions. Therapists are able to communicate with parents with essentially the same ease, and by observing the parent and child at home in their normal environment, the therapist may gain additional insight into their interactions, as the child will have their normal toys and may feel more comfortable and act more naturally than they would in a therapist’s room.

Does PCIT help parents?

In addition to the skills parents develop through the treatment, PCIT has also been shown to reduce frustration, stress, and depression in parents and promote confidence and a sense of calm when dealing with their children. The desired outcomes of PCIT include a reduction in defiant and aggressive behavior by children and an improvement in communicating their feelings productively, complying with parental instruction, and behaving according to parents’ rules. Growth in these areas can be a relief for parents.
