Family Therapy

Relationships are as crucial to us as food and water. It's worth noting that infants who do not receive the care of being held, talked to, or nurtured have a one hundred percent mortality rate. In many cultures worldwide, ostracism was once considered a form of capital punishment. As many inmates can attest, solitary confinement is one of the most psychologically damaging experiences in prison. All of this underscores the importance of relationships in our lives.

Different species employ various methods of navigation. Dolphins and other marine mammals rely on sonar, while it's been theorized that pigeons use smell. For humans, our navigation through life is intricately tied to our interactions with other human beings. We rely on the support and assistance of others to make progress. We come to understand ourselves, find solace in our emotional wounds, and achieve our life goals through our relationships with others.

As a marriage and family therapist, I am trained to analyze the problems you face through the lens of your relationships. Which relationships are involved in the issue you're encountering? How does this problem impact your other relationships at work, school, or within your family? The interventions I employ are crafted to enhance the specific relationship of concern and positively influence every relationship you have.

Family therapy, in particular, focuses on improving familial relationships to alleviate anxiety, depression, and stress.
