My approach to therapy is to seek an understanding of your life experiences and use CBT and family frameworks to help you achieve your goals.
No one around you seem to understand what you're going through or why you won't open up? Impacted by stigma, machismo, or lack of support? I'm someone who has lived through fear of opening up to close ones and avoided any basic emotional support because I truly believed that would make me look weak and inferior. That was my culture and family's view of issues. I'm here to tell you it doesn't. It's a form of strength and I can help you destigmatize and change those debilitating beliefs we carry from our upbringing and society to live the best quality of life you desire.

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.
