I believe that every family faces unique challenges when it comes to sorting out relationship differences and day-to-day living. Whether it's navigating parent-child expectations or meeting the needs of each family member, it can be difficult to find a path forward. That's why I offer family therapy within a biblical model, providing each member the opportunity to be heard and learn to seek the Lord's guidance individually as they relate to their loved ones. Let's work together to strengthen your family and build healthier relationships.

Family therapy is an essential part of the therapy process. The burden of change is not exclusively on the individual client.

Family therapy offers clients the opportunity to improve communication, examine roles, & align values & beliefs.

Families who come in for counseling as a family are given a chance to work through issues in a safe environment-- where trust, respect, and honor are learned, given, and received--because the family is intentional about learning new strategies. Families learn that it is counterproductive to have an "identified patient" in the family, where one family member is "tagged" to be the only one acting out and causing family distress. Biblical and Family Systems principles may be applied to have the whole family become engaged in the positive change and nurturing process.

Are there problems going on related to your child's school work, or your child's behavior in general, or in your child's relationships with children the same age?

Aren't families interesting? A family is a system, so when one part breaks down, all the other parts are effected. If you are having difficulties with a family member, consider therapy. Sometimes you can change the whole system by changing yourself. Sometimes it's most helpful for two or more of the family to come in together. Give therapy a chance. Your Tomorrow Can Feel Better Than Today.

I believe God created us for relationship and that good relationships take effort. I incorporate listening skills, attachment styles, relational skills, and biblical principles into my family therapy.
