My family centerd approach is effective with those of a non-traditional structure, including adoptive, pre-adoptive, same-sex and cross racial/cultural parenting homes.
My inclusive practice is anchored in a respect for the cultural lens that shape a diversity of world views. My therapeutic approach is especially effective for changing repetitive unproductive behavioral patterns in interpersonal relationships and supporting new insights for understanding that the same mindset cannot be used for finding solutions to the complex problems that created them.

Finding a connection with someone you can trust, is difficult. Sometimes, finding the right words and identifying emotions can be uncomfortable and frustrating. More often than not, the fear of judgement can be so overwhelming, it prevents us from reaching out and seeking the help we need. I can offer you a warm and welcoming environment, free of judgement but, full of empathy, compassion and understanding. At the end of each session, you will walk away knowing and feeling the interaction was authentic.

I have extensive experience working with children and adults going through life changes and transitions, depression, anxiety, managing anger, family or relationship conflict.
I value making therapy a safe and comfortable experience for my clients. Therefore I take a collaborative approach to treatment: I believe the best outcomes in therapy happen when both the client and therapist work together. It may be that therapy is new to you, or you have had a bad experience before; but I will work with you to ensure that we are addressing your needs and meeting your goals. The process of therapy is different for everyone and treatment should be viewed in the same way.

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.
