A lot of people do not realize trauma doesnt have to be a big scary event, it can be childhood teasing within the family or implied pressures from others.
HI, I love being human with people. Therapy with me is like having a friend who is a therapist, as my style is warm, relaxed and firm. I want to ensure I am giving you exactly what you need, so I work with you to get YOUR treatment goals down and then conquer those concerns. I use a variety of different theories and approaches as each client is individual and different techniques are necessary to provide individualized care. I love teaching skills and worksheets so you will rarely leave empty-handed without something you can work on outside of the office.

Experiencing stress from life transitions or chronic illness? Or are you a fellow therapist or medical provider? Stress can come from life, family, social identities, society/culture, trauma and/or relationships. It can make it harder to cope, connect with people, increase anxiety, and make ourselves unrecognizable. Healing from stress and anxiety is mental, emotional, physical, relational, and spiritual. My work as a therapist is to promote holistic healing, build insight, help you strengthen your important relationships, and build the life you want. I can help, and I have immediate openings for residents in NV and NC!

Yes, I see people of all ages! My background is in human development and the ways in which attachment, traumas, and other significant life experiences shape how our automatic nervous systems respond to environmental triggers, brain structure, and behaviors at each different life cycle stage. Anxiety, anger, mood shifts, loneliness, loss, detachment, fear of trust, chronic illness, people with higher sensitivities- these are some of my top areas.

I provide a comprehensive individual and family intervention plan to address the child's individual needs via play therapy intervention, parent consultation, observation, education as well as training and consultation to day care and school.
In recent years there has been an increase in mental health referrals for young children (3-6 years of age). They are having difficulty in developing emotional and social skills which they need to succeed at home, day care and pre-kinder school. Parents' main complaints are that their child is having frequent "emotional meltdowns", "temper tantrums", "verbal and physical aggression", "defiance", "shutting down", "clinging", "school refusal", and "stop talking". The child has reached an extreme level of emotional distress for him/herself and for others around them. I also provide therapy for adults.

Originally started my career in substance abuse and noticed the pattern of family and its significance on the individual .
Perhaps the previous methods of coping are not working. Maybe the words and ability to express those emotions are challenging and unnerving. Maybe life has forced a new role and now self identity/worth are being challenged. Therapy can be the tool to learn to be independent, autonomous, confident and self sufficient. To live a life where it is comfortable in setting boundaries, to live in your truth and learn the tools for self acceptance or the freedom of releasing the hold of what has been emotionally restrictive. All while learning to face those parts of ourselves that create shame, pain and discomfort in a space that is safe.

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.
