Wallace Davis has had a lifetime of helping others to find direction for their lives, to become more than they were and to reach their potential as a person and family member.
Sometimes life is just tough...and we can't see through the fog and darkness. We lose our way, or something bumps us off our path. Sometimes we need a new direction so we can be all that God created us to be. We might need to change our behavior...and more importantly change our thinking. Pain has been a part of all our lives. How we deal with pain will determine much of our future.

Do you ever feel life is beating you down? Are you experiencing a change in life? Do you feel broken, stressed or exhausted?

You're not just finding a counselor, you're gaining a dedicated ally who believes that with the right support, every family can navigate the challenges of senior life transitions with strength, grace, and hope.
While gaining seniority is an accomplishment, it comes with many obstacles we don't often consider. When senior loved ones encounter health challenges it impacts the whole family. Understanding, navigating, and adapting to those changes requires more than patience; it requires the support and guidance of someone who not only comprehends the complexities of such transitions but also approaches them with a deep sense of empathy and compassion.

I believe that everyone has a story that needs to be told. There is such power and change that comes when someone shares their personal story, and I believe that everyone’s story should be heard, no matter the age. People go through life with their own struggles, trials, and perceptions; but they don’t have to do it alone. As a clinician, I provide a safe place for my clients to share their story, provide empathetic support, and encourage change through personal empowerment and shifted perspective. I use a combination of therapeutic interventions to best serve each individual.

Family Therapy

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
