Life can present unexpected challenges, major transitions, and moments of intense uncertainty that leave us feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from who we are. Whether you are navigating anxiety, processing trauma, adjusting to parenthood, or breaking old patterns that no longer serve you, I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space to help you find your footing.

My work with adults centers on major life transitions, anxiety, burnout, trauma, identity exploration and personal growth. I integrate relational, somatic, and strength-based approaches to help you process complex emotions and deepen your self-awareness.

Additionally, I support children and families through trauma and developmental shifts. When working with kids, I use the natural language of play and honest, age-appropriate narratives to help them express what they may not yet have the words to say, ensuring both caregivers and children feel supported along the way.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Aurora

Finding family therapists in Aurora starts with understanding what your family wants help with and what kind of support fits best. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication patterns, and changes across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Aurora therapists, look for bios that mention family counseling, parenting support, family systems, or experience working with children, teens, and caregivers.

Aurora has a range of therapists across the city, and virtual appointments can expand your options when travel, school schedules, or work hours make in-person sessions harder to coordinate. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups within the family, or individual members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for appointment availability, session structure, therapy approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. This can help you understand how they work with families before the first session.

Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for family therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can compare therapists in Aurora, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
