Family Therapy

Alexandria, Virginia

Navigating family dynamics can be challenging, and communication conflicts can contribute to significant stress and disconnection within the household.

My therapy services are dedicated to both individuals and their families.  Our family work focuses on strengthening the well-being of the entire family unit. I work with families to improve communication, strengthen relationships, and create an engaged and connected home environment where everyone feels heard and understood.

As part of my family therapy approach, I implement elements from Structural Family Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in order to meet the specific needs of each family. The family therapy process assesses roles, relationships, emotional bonds, patterns, and behaviors that occur within the family unit. By working together and fostering understanding, families can create stronger bonds and establish a more supportive, communicative, and harmonious home.

Family therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues, including but not limited to:

  • Parent-child conflicts

  • Communication 

  • School challenges

  • Sibling issues

  • Peer issues

  • Life transitions

  • Child development

  • Emotional and / or Behavioral issues

  • Blended family adjustments

  • Substance abuse and addiction

  • Sexuality

  • Gender Identity

  • Divorce or separation

  • Trauma

  • Mental health challenges in one or more family members

  • Grief and loss

Our home environment greatly impacts our overall sense of well-being.

When we address family dynamics and create a more supportive, and nurturing environment, we empower children, young adults, and parents to more adeptly navigate their challenges and strengthen their  resilience.

Family therapy strengthens family bonds and promotes healthy communication, which positively impacts the entire family's mental health and functioning.

Family therapy  is a collaborative and proactive approach that focuses on fostering understanding, acceptance, growth, and harmony within the family.
