Are you experiencing stress that is impacting your life? Are your relationships struggling? I believe in the importance of creating and maintaining healthy and fulfilling relationships through my work with children, adolescents, families and couples to achieve the relationships they desire. Most of the time things happen and we manage fine, but sometimes things happen that throw us for a loop and we need some additional support. Using Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (thoughts and behaviors), Family Systems Therapy, and Play Therapy as appropriate, I help individuals and families identify and use their strengths to facilitate their goals for growth and change.

I draw on various treatment modalities, including Attachment-based therapies like Post-Induction Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and other parts-focused approaches.
Those who have experienced developmental and relational trauma are constantly finding themselves in complicated and challenging relationships. Maybe you identify with codependency, complicated grief, or are suffering from other intimacy disorders. It may seem like you’re navigating the world, unable to esteem and care for yourself in meaningful ways. Dysfunction at work or school, financial challenges, and perhaps declining physical health have prevented you from living a full and whole-hearted life. Today is different- together, we can work on challenging your old beliefs and create a new way of knowing and being known.

With a strong foundational belief in family systems, I know that we are individuals with subjective experiences living in a social world requiring connection & shared understanding.
Learning to give yourself grace, accept the perfect imperfections that make us human, and balance relationships and responsibilities has it's challenges. Every experience in the lifespan has influenced who we have become, how we react to situations, and how we connect with others. The motivation to grow and learn, to feel and communicate is what I am looking for when we work together. Through counseling, we will identify and model healthy communication, reflect and process important events, and empower you to grow and heal from whatever may be holding you back from authenticity and connection in your life and relationships.

Sometimes when life happens, we are left with feelings of frustration, confusion, sadness or anger. Then, we face the challenge of moving on, getting by, grieving, and coping. Identifying a problem and a need for help are difficult and necessary first steps towards getting "unstuck", healing and recovery. You have made the first step. I will work with you through the rest.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
