In our daily lives, we all face struggles, both large and small.
We experience anxiety and extended periods of sadness and low energy.
We work on our experiences, pull friends close and try techniques that have worked in the past.
Sometimes it's different though.
Sometimes the struggles are beyond our skillset to negotiate.
Sometimes we've had such a hard series of hits that our normal resources and social supports aren't enough.
That's when it's time to reach out for help.
The key to a happy, satisfying life is the ability to move through those times of challenge and develop new capacities without getting stuck.

Wishing there could be more to your marriage than just trying to stick it out for the kids?.
Face it: long term, committed relationships - most often marriages - are the most challenging aspect of our lives.
In comparison to work and friendship where most people function quite well, committed relationships make us feel loved and connected as much as angry and hurt.
They hold unrelieved tension and disharmony.
Often they trigger defense mechanisms, reactive fights and withdrawal, rather than productive conversations that enhance trust and authenticity.

Despite everyone's best intentions, raising a child can be very challenging.
Parenting issues are probably one of the very deepest sources of pain and anxiety in the parents I work with.
Whether you are facing pressure from teachers or other parents to make your child conform to certain standards of behavior, noticing some concerning behaviors or simply wanting to improve communications and trust in the family, Child & Family Therapy can be a powerful intervention and support system.
Every family is a unique system, with its unique strengths and challenges.

Successful relationship and communication with loved ones can be both the most rewarding - and most difficult - aspect of one's life.
Whether you're challenged with a partner, child, sibling or parent, all too often you'll feel angry, hurt and misunderstood.
You can find yourself unable to communicate in a way that the other can listen, nor can you understand their perspective without seeing them as irrational, emotional or just plain wrong.
The caring connection is lost, and the stress runs from the relationship to spill into the rest of your life.
