My Specialties and Approach to Therapy.
Family Therapy: Systems Orientation
Families are intricate systems where each member influences the whole. My systems-oriented approach in family therapy focuses on improving communication, fostering understanding, and resolving conflicts within the family.
I have helped families with Child/Parent conflicts, Argument and communication problems, Loss of family cohesion, Disruptive behaviors in children and teens, Grief/loss, Anxiety, Depression, and issues of Separation or divorced parents.
In Family Therapy we will work to strengthen your family’s bonds and creating a more supportive and harmonious family system.
Couples Therapy: Emotional Processing Orientation
Couples therapy is a powerful journey towards understanding your relationship. It offers a supportive space where both partners can openly express their feelings, understand each other’s perspectives, and develop deeper empathy.
I employ an emotional processing orientation to help partners understand their emotions and behaviors towards each other. We will explore your current feelings and situation and help you gain insights into what is causing difficulties with the goal to enhance your connection, and build a resilient and fulfilling relationship.
Individual Therapy: Narrative, Cognitive behavioral, and Psychodynamic Orientation
For teens and young adults, I offer individual therapy that helps transform and rewrite struggles into a more stable and hopeful life. We will take a look at the truth of your life and gain understanding about how past difficulties have affected you and shape your present feelings, thoughts, and what you do in life.
In Therapy, you will have a safe space to talk about what is real and gain insight, build self-awareness, and develop strategies to navigate life's challenges more effectively.
