I truly enjoy working with families and the dynamics that occur when adult family members come together to change and heal.
Families tell me that my humor, strengths-based nature, and ability to be on everyone’s team at the same time are qualities that help them trust me and take courageous risks in therapy.
I strive to help family members connect with one another emotionally, to help them understand the dynamics that keep them in unhelpful interaction patterns, and identify the intergenerational ways they have built their family story, both helpful and unhelpful.
I have advanced training in family systems, meaning that I understand and know how to navigate the complexities of family relationships in the therapy room. I am able to conceptualize your family experience through the lens of individual personal experience, intergenerational trauma, developmental stages, societal pressure and expectation, and historical impacts.
I have a particular interest in working with adult sibling relationships, which are underfocused on in the therapy field and contain their own unique experiences and dynamics.
