As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I know that no one is an island; we are all affected by the relationships we have. Families are complicated. Change brings tension and can feel threatening. An outside perspective is especially important when you are facing challenges you don't know how to address. We'll work together to develop a better understanding of how your family functions and learn new ways to handle conflict, communicate and relate to each other in a healthy way.

If you have resentment, trust issues, infidelity and resistance in your relationship, I offer techniques like group hypnotherapy or couples EMDR where each person can focus on their emotion that they want to work on and do the release exercises with me, as a way to compliment healthy communication or thinking patterns in the relationship. This is not traditional talk therapy at all - it is solution focused, with each person working on processing traumas or burdens that they hold within themselves.

Most family therapists inadvertently create more chaos through their well-intentioned efforts to assist a family move through a change process. Why? Brains are inherently deregulated (all of us, may I add) and most talking and dialoguing misses brain-centric problems that need more intensive help. Many times the emotional trauma created by years of solving problems ineffectively can wreak havoc on the brain's parasympathetic nervous system, not ever giving the family a break from flight or fight thinking.
