If family life feels harder than it should, you're not alone. I've spent 20 years helping individuals and families through parenting struggles, relationship strain, trauma, anxiety, and depression, including the challenges of adoptive parenting. I bring humor and warmth to our work, and I'd love to help you find your footing again.
I work in a client centered, collaborative way, letting you set the pace while we figure out together what you want to change. In our sessions I might help you notice and shift thought patterns that keep you stuck, work through problems side by side, or build practical tools and skills you can use between sessions. My goal is to help the symptoms that brought you in start to ease, while you gain real traction on the changes you're after. I offer a free consultation first, so we can talk through what you're hoping to get from therapy before you commit to a full session. I look forward to meeting you.
Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, no pressure to have it all figured out. We'll talk through what's bringing you in and what you're hoping changes, and you'll leave with a sense of whether this feels like the right fit for you. Many clients tell me they feel truly heard, and a little lighter, after our first conversation.
