Do you struggle to communicate and live together as a family day to day? Collaborating in family therapy sessions will allow us to explore the unique patterns and legacies of your extended families, and increase awareness of current family member roles and dynamics. Over time, goals can include resolving conflict, building bridges to promote healing, learning healthy communication tools and fostering deep and meaningful connection with one another.

I primarily work with families who have been impacted by chronic health or medical conditions. Managing the burden of a medical condition can be overwhelming at times, and it can have an impact on the whole family. The families I work with benefit from parent support, increasing confidence in the medical setting, and improving interactions around symptoms. This work results in an overall improvement in quality of life not just for the person who has the medical condition, but for the family as a whole.
