Hi there! I am so glad that you are here and considering therapy. As someone who was raised in a culture where mental health was not widely discussed, I understand firsthand the power of being able to openly share your thoughts without fear of judgment or scrutiny. With that being said, I also understand how intimidating it can be to attend therapy, especially for the first time. My goal as a therapist is to meet my clients where they are and create a safe and warm environment in which my clients can explore their authentic selves.

I am trained in many different therapy approaches, including but not limited to EMDR, Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Family Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
You wish there was someone who understood you; someone you could talk to without being judged or made to feel bad about your feelings. You’ve suffered a great loss and you haven’t been the same since. You’re wondering if the pain will ever go away and if you’ll ever be happy again. Life has been hard and you’ve questioned if it’s even worth living. You’re bombarded with mental images, thoughts, or reminders about a trauma that won't seem to go away. Grief and trauma have a way of changing our entire world. You desperately want to feel hope again. Or maybe you're experiencing stress and worry about other major life transitions.

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.
