Helping Couples and Families Find Connection

Serving Katy, Texas, with Couples Therapy, Family Therapy, and EMDR Therapy at Stokan & Associates

Couples Therapy for Those Who Want More

Many of the people I work with feel they want more from their relationship with their partner. Some feel like they have become “roommates,” while some have felt the relationship grow colder year after year. Many fear it is too late to repair the relationship. If this resonates with you, you are not alone. Relationships can be challenging, and many people feel stuck. Couples therapy is a path forward for many couples who want something more. 

Family Therapy for Child/ Teen Crisis Situations

Do you find yourself bouncing back and forth from the mental health hospital? Maybe this is the first crisis, and you are scared and confused. Whether your child or teen is experiencing suicidal thoughts, self harm, or behavioral issues, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure this out by yourself. I specialize in crisis-focused therapy for young people and offer steady, family-centered support to help bring clarity, safety, and stability back into your home.

EMDR for Trauma and Negative Self-Beliefs

The past can really hurt. Many people experience intrusive thoughts and memories that they can’t get out of their head. Whether you have experienced “Big T” trauma or a smaller trauma, the effects can be debilitating. EMDR therapy provides relief for those who have memories or negative beliefs that are harmful.Those who experience harm from past memories, flashbacks, and negative thought patterns find relief through EMDR Therapy. Through the process of EMDR therapy, difficult memories are processed so they no longer affect how you feel and think about yourself. 

My Approach to Couples Therapy and Family Therapy

For me, Couples Therapy and Family Therapy is about relationship. It is an encounter between people pursuing personal growth. I grow with my clients to help them achieve their goals. Couples Therapy and Family Therapy with me is a balance between lighthearted and serious, joyful and sad. I make room for all aspects of human experience. The models that guide me are Emotion Focused Therapy, Bowen Family Systems, Internal Family Systems Therapy, EMDR, and Structural Family Therapy.
