I utilize a blend of Psychoeducation, Structural, Cognitive Behavioral, Narrative, Solution Focused, Gottman Therapy, and other Family System Theories.
What is the sense of belonging that many people claim to have, and others have no idea how to acquire? Have ever felt the need to be part of some group or be someone else? I first developed an interest in becoming a therapist when I worked in a drug abuse residential as an aid assistant. As part of my responsibility, I engaged the residents in conversation in the hope of encouraging them to become more involved in their treatment and develop a sense of self. With this experience, I realized that I was able to be empathetic and felt good about minimal accomplishments experienced by residents.

When community therapists and psychiatrists refer their friends and family to a therapist - it's me.
Let me give you a challenge. For the next 30 days I want you to think about this phrase every day. Write it down and really consider it. "Most of our thoughts, behaviors and emotions are habitual. We wonder why our lives don't change but fail to consider that we are utterly predictable in our daily habits." Our brain seeks to make things habitual. And, you guessed it - that's a key factor in change. Call me, I help people go further in their lives/careers/ and relationships. I've spent 20 years deep in the science of change. If you don't know how to change things - that's OK because I do. Let's untie the knots and stop the pain.

I have extensive experience in helping clients navigate through depression, anxiety, abuse, adoption issues, substance abuse, marriage and family issues, and trauma.
While sometimes life seems to move along pretty smoothly, no one is going to escape dealing with challenging circumstances in their life. Whether you might be dealing with something in the past or a present event, relationships with others and the decisions you make are affected by the emotions you are feeling. As a Certified Mental Health Therapist, I believe that when someone is struggling with mental health related issues, seeking help is the best thing you can do for yourself. Emotional issues are often silent and unseen, but seeking help can provide the support and clarity needed to help you move forward.

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.
