Family Counseling

Stress, conflict, or disconnection within a family can be incredibly challenging and upsetting.  When there is a relationship that is struggling, it can have a cascade effect that impacts the entire family unit. Being in a family is not always easy when there are different personalities, ways of thinking, or different approaches to parenting.  It can be challenging to figure out how to meet the needs of individual family members while also placing a focus on the needs of the family.

Today’s family takes on many different forms with each family having its own unique characteristics.  Family therapy can be helpful in navigating co-parenting situations and in addressing challenges between parents and their children.  Family therapy can also extend beyond the nuclear family and help when there are struggles with extended family members or even friends. 

Family therapy seeks to identify patterns of behavior and communication that are causing barriers to connection within a family.  Family therapy provides a neutral and non-judgmental space to process and work through difficult issues.  The goal is to work towards a solution that benefits the family as a whole and creates a more connected family environment.
