Counseling for families throughout California Virtually
Helping You Connect with Your Child, One Conversation at a Time
Therapy for Families
Family relationships are beautiful—and also complex. As a Livermore‑based therapist serving families across California virtually, I help families heal ruptures, improve communication, and foster genuine connection. If you feel stuck in patterns of conflict, disconnection, or tension, you’re not alone—and transformation is possible.
In family therapy, we’ll address everyone’s needs together. We’ll explore what’s happening beneath the surface, build healthier ways of being with one another, and create lasting change. My hope is for your family to feel safer, more understanding, and connected—no matter where you are in California.

Ruptured Connections
We can create a safe space to rebuild trust after breaches like dishonesty, betrayal, or neglect. Healing ruptured connections allows each person to feel heard and understood—opening the door to more genuine, positive moments together. (Virtual family therapy throughout California)
-
High Family Tension
When emotions have been suppressed for too long, conflict can build. In therapy, we’ll practice healthier ways to express feelings and mediate conversations. With improved communication and conflict resolution strategies, families often experience fewer arguments and more peace at home.
-
Behavioral Challenges & Underlying Needs
Big behaviors often point to deeper unmet needs. We’ll explore what’s beneath the surface—pain, fear, or unmet emotional needs—and use attachment‑based tools to help you connect with your child’s inner world. This allows you to respond with understanding rather than frustration.
-
Navigating Conflict & Disagreements
Conflict is natural; how we navigate it makes the difference. Through conflict‑management techniques we’ll learn to reduce harm in heated moments and use therapy as a neutral space to understand each other’s perspectives and shift control dynamics.
-
Bridging Understanding & Voice
Many relational struggles stem from feeling unseen or misunderstood. We’ll build new communication tools that help you and your child express thoughts and emotions more clearly and constructively. As both feel truly seen and heard, relational stress often lessens significantly.
-
Healing & Renewal After Loss or Change
Loss, divorce, relocation, or other major transitions can leave a family feeling adrift and disconnected. In therapy, we’ll navigate these changes together—rebuilding shared meaning, restoring a sense of safety, and helping each person feel supported and understood as your family moves forward.
