Family affects who we are and become. Our family relationships are the jumping off point for all other relationships in our lives.
When you have a healthy family life, then the family members are usually communicating well and enjoy each other’s company. Conflicts are resolved peaceably and with mutual satisfaction. And if you or another member of the family is struggling, everyone rallies around that person.
If, however, conflict and struggle have become overwhelming in your family, then professional guidance can help you create a better path through that struggle and reach resolution. I can help you and your family identify underlying issues and create a game plan.
Family therapy is not just talking. It is a form of psychotherapy. It involves multiple family members, though not every session must include all members of the family. Ultimately, it helps you create a healthy, “working” family.
Family therapy helps each individual in the family figure out how he or she can make family life better. In counseling sessions, we practice compassionate dialogue, and make strides for change. As a result, relationships can begin the process of repair. Stronger, more fruitful bonds can be created or restored. Home can once again be a safe place, where you can be yourselves and where you all belong.
