I am a Child and Family therapist who loves working with families! Families have many components, and each component is special. Each child and adult in the family has a place, that sometimes gets lost. I help each member understand needs and develop stronger bonds. I help parents develop and maintain a healthy relationship, understand their parental roles and styles, and how they affect the child. I like to help families create a healthy and supportive environment where they learn to resolve conflict, and set appropriate age and developmental milestones and limits to help their children achieve their best.

I also provide nurturing and mindful counseling to survivors of trauma. I help survivors of Rape, Domestic Violence, Child Sexual Abuse and Childhood Sexual Abuse. I help the survivors process, gain back control of their lives, and learn to manage the impact that the trauma creates in their lives.

For over 12 years I have been using therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Coaching, Family Therapy, and Marital Counseling, to help clients address conflict resolution, develop better communication skills, and feel empowered.  Therapy is one of the paths to develop a healthy mind and body.
