Couples therapy in Pasadena, Parent child therapy in Pasadena, and Family Therapy virtually throughout California.
My Background and Approach
The tools that I use to help heal relationships are evidence-based and perfected over time. I use EFT, emotionally focused therapy, to rewire and deepen secure relationship bonds. I have an IFS (internal family systems) lens, understanding that each of us has many, sometimes conflicting, needs and desires. And I use tools from Gottman and PCIT (parent child interaction) therapies for symptom relief as we work to make your relationship secure. I do not just apply my favorite tools to every parent, child, and couple. Your relationship is unique, and I will sit with you and your family member to get to know both of you, and together we will choose the tools that will work best for your family.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
You are not alone. Relationships are hard, especially when the world throws so much stress at us. But once you have solidified a strong, secure bond with those closest to you, everything gets easier. You deserve the deep sense of security that comes from fulfilling relationships. I believe that band-aids for symptoms are not enough, but that symptom relief is important. And I believe that you can change the way you've been approaching your relationship, and that that change will help you have a happier life. I know that we bring our past into every relationship, and that it can color how we interact in ways that don't help us. But I believe that we can change how we relate, resolve old wounds, gain perspective, change patterns, and find middle ground. Let's get started.
