"You are here on earth because there is something that only you can do!" Choosing Now as the time to act and being fully present in your body and in your relationships will take you to infinite possibilities. All of life's answers lie in how deep you are connected to yourself. Do not turn your attention elsewhere to look for the truth, for it is nowhere to be found but within your body.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Houston, Tx and offer individual, family and couples therapy.
Growing numbers of adolescents, adults, and families are dealing with issues stemming from anxiety, depression, lack of connection, finding purpose, grief, and loss of control in an ever-changing world. Therapy can look a lot of different ways, but most importantly it is an hour of time dedicated to getting to know yourself and building a meaningful future.

I will invite you to experiment something you are willing to try – focusing on being instead of doing, paying attention to the physical sensation instead of cognition, getting in touch with your inner world, exploring yourself by using “parts” language in Internal Family Systems (IFS).
Life can be very unkind at times. You may feel stuck or isolated right now and think that no one appreciates you. I would be happy to listen to your stories. Sometimes, all you need is someone who can listen to you with authenticity and non-judgmental attitude, which I can guarantee you to provide. By opening up to release your bubbled-up emotions, you may start to notice new you, which is the beginning of your enlightening journey. When was the last time you actually tuned into your own feelings and emotions?

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.
