Family Therapy
“Dysfunctional families” has become a buzz phrase.
Just because your family doesn’t look like the early ‘50s Leave it to Beaver family, doesn’t mean it’s not functional.
It becomes dysfunctional when the chaos and/or emotional pain threatens the integrity of the family structure.
Families, like individuals, have their own unique personalities.
If you think you have a dysfunctional family, then learn how to relate to one another in healthier ways.
Family Therapy helps build stronger families.
I offer support to families, and help them develop better communication skills.
Family therapy also encompasses “empty-nest” syndrome – that inability to let go of adult children when they move out on their own, including going to college.
Parents can learn positive parenting skills and how to relate to their children, no matter what developmental stage the child is experiencing.
Therapy can address the stressors associated with divorce. Or even the loss of an immediate family member through death.
I find that solution-focused family therapy and structural family therapy has worked very well for family therapy.
