Is the way you and your partner and/or family relate to each other problematic? I can help. I am specially trained to work with you from a systemic lens to help your identify resources that can be helpful. I believe you have within yourself and your life the resources to successfully make beneficial changes in your life. I utilize a variety of systemically based interventions to help invoke change in my clients. This incudes assigning homework to be completed before the next session.
As a systemically trained therapist, I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups in all phases of the family life cycle from launching your young adults and couple formation to death. This includes parenting, step-parenting, or co-parenting before/and or after divorce. I also work with directly children 6 years and up.
My doctoral research centered on father's grief after the death of a child. I have worked with clients who identify with a variety of sexual orientations. I have also worked with active duty and retired military service members and their families. I run two free bereavement support groups on a monthly basis.
