Individual, Couples & Family Therapy

Individual Therapy

Let’s work together to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replace them with more adaptive ones. I’ll guide you to take ownership of what is yours to change and highlight when it’s the systems you are involved in that also need change or contribute to your concerns. Commonly I help clients in individual therapy achieve the following:

• Release self-doubt and limiting beliefs

• Increase perspective of self and others

• Gain and/or strengthen assertive communication skills

• Find clarity and move forward with a stronger sense of self

Issues addressed:

Anxiety, depression, self-esteem, stress, relationship conflict, family-of-origin concerns, adolescent difficulties, life transitions, identity development, alcohol and other drug concerns.

Couples Therapy

All couples face relationship challenges and difficulties. How couples address and work through stressors and conflict contributes to a sense of connection or disconnection. As a couple, how are you viewing the “problem?” Do you share similar concerns? Do you share the same values? Do you approach or avoid conflict? How do you show love and care? When engaged in difficult dialogue, how are you communicating?

I help couples identify and change their unwanted patterns and replace them with new ways of relating that increase intimacy and promote shared growth.

Issues addressed:

Communication, infidelity, emotional and physical intimacy concerns.

Family Therapy

I specialize in helping adolescents and parents navigate the transitions inherent to the teenage years. Adolescence is a time when teens are experimenting with who they are and whom they want to be; this process can be challenging for all involved.

Peers often become the center of a teen’s world, and parents often feel they have little influence. Power struggles are central to this developmental period, and as a result, misunderstandings, conflicts, and hurts seem to thrive.

Effective family therapy requires the therapist to engage all family members in the therapeutic process and address the needs and concerns of all. Let me help your family find increased connection, healing and restore balance.

Issues addressed:

Family conflict, parenting issues, adolescent difficulties (mental health and substance use concerns).
