Individual Therapy
I work with children, adolescents and families. This includes family conflict, reunification therapy, and divorce. I work from a strengths based perspective, using the skills and strengths that an individual already posses to assist in managing current challenge(s) and identified goals. My work is brief in nature, I believe that most people possess the skills they need to improve their lives, but can use some guidance, education or simply some support in order to apply those skills correctly.

Reunification Services
Reunification therapy is a specific form of family therapy that addresses contact resistance or refusal, or estrangement between a parent and a child; most often in cases where the parents are living apart. It is most often sought out by a parent and ordered by a court when a child is resisting contact with a parent.
Reunification differs from traditional psychotherapy because of the legal nature of this process and will require service that extend beyond regularly scheduled individual sessions. For example consulting with other professionals involved with the family such as: other treatment providers, case managers, Guardian Ad Litems, and attorneys. Additionally there there may be a need to provide the court with written reports.

Parenting Coordinator
The primary role of a parenting coordinator is to provide parents with a forum for resolving child-related disputes outside of the courtroom and to help parents focus on the needs of the child(ren) instead of their parental conflict. The duties of a parent coordinator include providing parents with problem solving and conflict management services, helping parents implement and clarify the parenting plan, monitoring compliance with court orders, and providing parents, attorneys and the court with recommendations for new or modified parenting time provisions as necessary. The role of parenting facilitation or coordination is undertaken only after I receive copies of a signed court order. The specific duties may vary in different families depending on how the order defines the parent coordinator role.
