Family Therapy

Our families are the foundation of who we are--for better or for worse-- and as such, it is important that that we bring peace and calm into our families and our parenting. As parents build strong one-one-one relationships with their children, and utilize consistent, loving, and authoritative parenting (meaning not authoritarian/controlling--or permissive/uninvolved), children will thrive. This takes improved self-awareness and positive personal growth for the parents, teamwork parenting with all caregivers involved in the child's life, supportive nurturing, and healthy communication with children. Family issues we see:

  • Improving family communication and teamwork

  • Co-parenting

  • Blended families (remarriage)

  • Better communicating emotions and needs

  • Building stronger sibling relationships

  • Building stronger parent/child relationships

Children are hugely impacted by their environment and often act out the stressors and traumas surrounding them, including those of their parents/caregivers. It is important to note that children cannot sustain changes in their lives when their parents and family system do not also make positive changes. Children are incredibly resilient and can heal, adapt and adjust quickly if they have a team working together to help them—this includes therapists, caregivers, and teachers. We approach child therapy by ensuring parents are willing to look at how they can make
changes to support their child’s needs by making changes to themselves and/or the family dynamics. We use a combination of play therapy, art therapy, CBT, solutions-focused/strengths based therapy, and family therapy to help children succeed in their lives. Issues we treat for children/teens:

  • Trauma

  • ADHD/ASD/Sensory Processing Disorder

  • Parent/child attachment

  • Anxiety/Depression

  • Self-esteem

  • Peer relations

  • Sibling relationships

  • Behavioral issues

  • Anger management

  • Adjustment to divorce or remarriage of parents
