Family Therapy

​

I am a strong believer in family relationships and the role of childhood experiences in shaping our adult selves. My therapeutic approach focuses on a family’s emotional system with the goal of creating a harmonious and supportive family environment. For families who have children, I also apply Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) techniques.  CPS helps families achieve realistic and sustainable goals that can work for the entire family.

​

Family relationships are complex and sensitive in nature, as we depend on one another for love, support, and approval.  Many of us did not have strong role models that allowed the opportunity to learn the skills needed to support members of our family.  This lack of supportive skills in one or more family members can profoundly influence the entire family system and create dysfunction. I will work with you to identify the roots of dysfunction and to reinstate or create a healthy and functional family relationship where all member of the family feel heard and respected.
