In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family as well as reading, writing, and engaging in other forms of creative expression.
My core philosophy on effective therapy is one that is relationship-driven and collaborative of my client’s views and narratives that guide their life stories. I believe that clients are the expert of their lives and that my role is to be a guide and witness to the stories that my clients bring into treatment. Every session is crucial to the overall health and well-being of my clients, and so I believe in creating a space that will allow for freedom, agency, and safety in expressing and fully showing up as one needs to.

As a family psychologist, I have been helping people with relationships, personal problems, and individual growth since 1993.
Life is challenging. People are complex. Mind, body, behavior, spirt, and relationships are all connected and so effect each other. When part of us grows, other parts grow as well. When part of us is hurt, other parts hurt as well.

Thank you for taking the first step and being here. Are you experiencing hurdles in life such as work stress, family issues, or relationship difficulties/issues? Do you suffer from anxiety, depression, trauma or grief? Do you often find it difficult to find the words to describe your feelings? Or to open up to people and feel a connection with them? Most likely, you've answered yes to at least one of these areas of concern. You are not alone; in the emotions, experiences, and pain that comes with life. I believe that every person who seeks counseling has their own answers to their unique situations.

I see therapy as a journey towards an authentic and meaningful life. There are many reasons to use therapy as a tool to move your life onto its best course. Often a crisis forces your hand and you know you can't take the next steps alone. Any major life change in family, relationships, work, or health could be the reason for seeking help. Therapy may also be the right choice when long-standing feelings of anxiety, unhappiness or shame have blocked your path. When our work together ends you will have confidence that your life is in healthy balance.

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.
