Family Therapy

Are you noticing tension or disconnection within your family that feels difficult to navigate?
Are the same conflicts showing up over and over again without resolution?
Are you struggling to understand or feel understood by one another?

Families are resilient, and with the right support, they can move through challenges and grow closer over time.

At the same time, when patterns of conflict, disconnection, or hurt develop, it can feel overwhelming to navigate them alone. Family therapy offers a space where each person can feel supported, understood, and less alone in what they’re experiencing.

Our families shape how we relate, connect, and understand ourselves. With care and guidance, they can also become an important part of the healing process—helping you move toward greater connection, understanding, and emotional support.

You Might Be in the Right Place If…

  • Your family is experiencing ongoing conflict, tension, or repeated arguments

  • There has been a major life change or transition impacting your family (divorce, relocation, loss, etc.)

  • Your family has experienced trauma, grief, or a difficult event that is affecting relationships

  • You’re struggling with parent-child or parent–adult child communication challenges

  • It feels difficult to set or maintain healthy boundaries within your family

  • Family members feel disconnected, misunderstood, or unsupported

  • There are patterns of conflict, withdrawal, or emotional distance within your family relationships

  • You want to create a more connected, supportive, and stable family dynamic

My Approach

I use Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), which focuses on strengthening connection and creating a sense of emotional safety within the family.

In many families, when stress or trauma occurs, patterns of disconnection, conflict, or withdrawal can develop. These patterns often reflect deeper emotional needs and attachment experiences.

Together, we will:

  • Create a space where each family member feels heard, understood, and valued

  • Identify the patterns and dynamics that are contributing to conflict or disconnection

  • Explore the underlying emotions and needs within the family

  • Begin to shift these patterns toward more secure, supportive ways of relating

My approach is:

  • Attachment-focused

  • Trauma-informed

  • Relational and experiential

  • Holistic, considering the emotional, relational, and systemic aspects of your family

The essence of trauma is disconnection… so the real question is: How did we get separated and how do we connect?”
