Therapy for Twins and Families of Twins & Multiples

Specialized Therapy to Meet the Unique Needs of Twins & Multiple Birth Families

Twins share a bond that is unlike any other. It begins prior to birth, and lasts a lifetime. It can be a source of strength and lifelong connection—but it can also bring challenges that others may not fully understand.
As a therapist with specialized expertise in twin dynamics, I provide a supportive space to explore the unique complexities and challenges of being—or raising—twins.

Services

Individual psychotherapy for adult and adolescent twins (ages 15+), parents of twins and multiples, spouses and partners of twins, and twinless twins.  Consultation for mental health professions.

Professional Consultation

Consultation for Mental Health Professionals who work with twins and multiple birth families, along with those who are interested in deepening their understanding of:
​
  • Twin dynamics
  • The significance of the twin bond
  • The unique developmental and relational needs and experiences of twins
  • The impact of twin loss—from in utero through adulthood. The complex emotions unique to twin bereavement and implications for the grieving process.
  • Clinical considerations when working with twins
  • Relational interventions

A special note about therapy for twin children:

Many parents have asked me about therapy for one or both of their twin children. I believe children and pre-teens benefit most from play therapy and working with a therapist who specializes in their developmental level.  While I do not offer this service myself, I'm happy to provide you with referrals to child and play therapists who do excellent work.  Please feel free to reach out—I welcome the opportunity to help you connect with the right support.
