Therapy for Families

Helping families reduce stress and improve interactions.

It can feel tough to connect when too much is happening in life.

Most people who start family therapy feel stuck repeating the same painful patterns. Perhaps you can relate? Maybe you feel like you want to escape your life or you know your family would be happier if you made changes but it is difficult to know where to start. 

Stuck in negativity and feeling miserable all the time, you may feel like life is out of control.

Do You Feel Disconnected, Hopeless, or Overwhelmed?

Do any of the following resonate with you?
If these sound true for you, we want you to know that even though you might feel like a failure for needing help, that couldn’t be further from the truth. It takes courage to become aware of your patterns and ask for help.

It's not selfish to prioritize caring for yourself. You don't have to always prioritize work or your family’s needs over your own needs.

How Family Therapy Works

Family Therapy consists of 53-minute, one-on-one or group sessions that help you work through your concerns. In addition to listening, your therapist will guide you towards solutions, they play an active role.

Here’s how it will work step-by-step:

1. First, your therapist will provide a safe, accepting space so that you will feel comfortable sharing your struggles with them.

2. Through hearing your story, your therapist will start to get a picture of what your challenges are.

3. Next your therapist will start by helping you with immediate concerns like managing difficult emotions and challenging life situations.

4. You will also work together to discover what your goals are in therapy and in life.

5. Keeping your unique goals in mind, you’ll figure out what’s needed to help you reach them.

6. Over the course of your sessions, you will start making progress towards the life you desire.

Family therapy can positively change your thinking, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. It can help you develop better communication and healthy relationships.
