Specializing In Helping Children, Adolescents, Couples & Families
FIND FREEDOM, ACCEPTANCE AND JOY
Welcome!
Everyone has something. Every family has something – something we struggle with, hoping it will magically disappear, fix itself, or that we can throw away.
We try stuffing away feelings of frustration, anxiety, anger, guilt, sadness, disappointment, fear, regret, or shame… Until they resurface again.
No matter what you or your family’s “something” is, identification and acknowledgement is the first step in beginning a personalized journey of discovery, understanding, awareness, and lastly, acceptance.
Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.
Whether I am working with frantic parents of a newborn, a toddler who has elected himself boss of the home, a child who has continues to disobey at school, an adolescent believing his parents are stupid, a broken-hearted college girl, a couple dealing with infidelity, or a family who has experienced the death of a child, I make a practice to meet my patients where they are emotionally.
I want each person I work with to know they do have a voice, and by becoming accountable, they can change their lives for the better.
Our Unique Approach
My patients describe me as having an “out-of-the-box” approach with kids as well as adults. My office is purposefully designed to not be the typical clinical setting. Having no desire for a standard office setting, I created instead an atmosphere of uniqueness, comfort, and safety.
My support team includes a 39-pound Sulcata Tortoise, our Golden Retriever therapy dog and chicks!

Navigating the Complexity of BPD Relationships: “I Hate You—Don’t Leave Me” and “Walking on Eggshells”
Relationships where one person has Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) often involve complex emotional dynamics that can leave spouses and family members feeling bewildered and drained. The recurring themes of “I Hate You—Don’t Leave Me” and “walking on eggshells” capture the essence of the challenges faced by loved ones. Why These Dynamics Occur The phrase “I […]

Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)
Have you ever been taken aback by someone’s sudden emotional changes, or found yourself walking on eggshells around a loved one because you couldn’t predict their mood from one moment to the next? These experiences may be familiar to those living with or around a loved one (parent/sibling.co-worker/friend/boss/partner/ with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). As a […]

Stop There! Don’t Say it!!! Statements Kids Should Not Hear
These statements are often used manipulatively by a parent to fulfill their emotional needs, placing undue pressure on the child to cater to these needs at the expense of their own mental health and development. This dynamic can severely impact the child’s ability to form healthy relationships outside their family and distort their understanding of […]

Balancing Acts: Prioritizing Your Child’s Needs Without Neglecting Your Partner
What people think they come to counseling for isn’t usually what they’re actually there for. Over the years, I’ve learned that everyone has something—some hidden, tangled mess that they might not even fully understand themselves. When people walk into my office, it’s as if they throw down a 10,000-piece jigsaw puzzle in the middle of […]

Changing the Path to Emotional Incest
Recognizing the Signs Early: It’s crucial for couples to maintain their connection throughout their parenting years, not just after the children have left. This means cultivating a relationship that exists independently of the children, focusing on each other’s needs, desires, and personal growth. Navigating the Transition: As children grow and become more independent, parents should […]

Cut the Commentary: Why Less is More When Talking to Kids

In this article, we will dive into overexplaining and how to negotiate in a healthy way. We have either observed or done […]

Confessions of a Therapist: When Parenting Turns into a Courtroom Drama
Thirty years in the therapy chair have offered me a window into countless lives; I don’t think there is much I have not seen. But there’s a recurring plot in the family saga that has me both amused and perplexed: the continual rise of the mini attorneys that present themselves in my office. These pint-sized […]
