Do you feel anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, stuck, or dissatisfied with your life? Is it affecting your ability to live the life you want to live and be the person, partner, parent, or employee you want to be? Do you feel defeated by parenting, infertility, work challenges, and the rest of your responsibilities? Do you feel that your life “should” be smoother, and that you “should” have more of it under control? Now more than ever, women are feeling overwhelmed trying to “do it all”: dealing with work challenges, relationship challenges, infertility, difficult pregnancies, and adjusting to parenthood or working parenthood.

“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced,” -James Baldwin. It is important to note that individuals who seek help from psychologists are ordinary people facing common, everyday human challenges. We all live in the world and belong to communities and families that have influenced our understanding of the world. Culturally sensitive therapy involves acknowledging how cultural values, beliefs, perceptions, and challenges shape our lives. Integrative therapy is a versatile and effective psychotherapy that addresses each client's individual and complex needs.

Sometimes we just need someone to help us through the hard times. You may be struggling with an issue that's been on your mind or impacting your life for a while. Perhaps you've experienced loss, or a key relationship has changed. Maybe you're anxious about going back to work in person, or about children returning to school. Or feeling sad but can't figure out exactly why. If you've tried endlessly to remove the obstacles that keep you stuck, attempted but failed to learn new ways of dealing with relationships, or have problems that seem too difficult to change on your own, then perhaps together we can find a better way.

My goal is to create a space of security to ensure that my clients are able to tap into their inner selves. Therapy is an opportunity to shut out all the loud noises and distractions that ask us to be someone else and prioritize other’s priorities. It gives us a chance to dig into ourselves, find out who we are while simultaneously discovering our specific automatic tendencies that hold us back. I enjoy the interactive dynamic, analyzing and delving into the areas that are going well and those that are preventing true happiness.

Have you been contemplating seeing a therapist but are not sure it is for you or would be helpful? There are many reasons a person may seek therapy. People usually seek therapy because they are unhappy or dissatisfied with their life and want or need change. Mental health issues, addictions to chemicals or unhealthy lifestyles, family or relationship issues or a general discontent with your life and the choices that are not working anymore are some of the reasons to seek treatment. Therapy is also a perfect addition to a wellness or self improvement and/or self exploration practice.

I need help with my life, is one of the bravest steps. "I want to change my life.", "I am unhappy". I can help transform your hopes into action. You CAN change your life....if you have the will and desire to do so. Taking good care of your emotional well being is almost as important as your body. Are you motivated to change and grow? Having the right person to help you reach your goals? I practice what I preach. “See me”and “hear me”. “Make it safe”. Often this is the beginning of what is missing in relationships. It's hard to ask for help. Being in a relationship is tricky. I would love to guide you to heal.

In life, we encounter many situations that seem to push us to our limits, or beyond. Some of these arise from within, others, from our surroundings. When these situations become intolerable, and nothing we’ve tried has worked, frustration, or even despair, may set in. At this point, we can give in or give up, or we can seek help and renewed hope. Whether you have been struggling mightily and at length, or mildly and briefly, I would be honored to meet you, to get to know you, to hear about what you’ve been going through, and to join with you in finding ways to make things better.

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.
