Family Therapy

Families are ever-evolving systems—each member influencing the whole. When one part of that system is stressed, the impact ripples outward. Family therapy offers a shared place to pause, listen, reset, and rebuild together.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I support families across California—parents, children, teens, and caregivers—who are navigating conflict, transitions, or simply struggling to feel heard. Whether you're working through long-standing tension or adjusting to a new phase of life, therapy can help you find a more connected way forward.

What Brings Families to Therapy

Every family has its own rhythm, roles, and growing pains. I work with families experiencing:

  • Parent-child conflict and power struggles

  • Sibling rivalry or emotional disconnection

  • Behavioral concerns in children or teens

  • Coping with a family member’s mental health needs

  • Blended family transitions or co-parenting stress

  • Loss, grief, or major life changes

  • Cultural or generational divides

Whether you're facing misunderstandings that turn into silence, or conflict that flares up too easily, family therapy can help you build clarity, empathy, and new patterns of connection.

How Family Therapy Helps

In our work together, I take time to understand the full landscape—your relationships, your history, and the values that shape your family dynamic. I help families:

  • Interrupt painful communication cycles

  • Improve how emotions are expressed and received

  • Strengthen understanding across generations

  • Develop more flexible and supportive roles

My approach draws from Family Systems Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Play Therapy (for children), and Mindfulness-informed practices. Every session is tailored to your family’s needs—not just to manage conflict, but to help everyone feel more seen and supported.

Inclusive and Affirming Care for All Families

I welcome and affirm families of all identities, structures, and cultural backgrounds. Whether you're parenting solo, co-parenting across households, or navigating complex multigenerational dynamics, I offer thoughtful, attuned care that meets you where you are.

Let’s Begin Together

Family therapy isn’t about getting everything right. It’s about learning how to show up for one another in more intentional ways—and building a foundation where every voice matters.

If your family is ready to grow through what you’re going through, I’d be honored to support you.
