My name is Tanya Farrar Brooks and I am a licensed mental health counselor who began her own therapeutic journey while very much entrenched in an unhealthy relationship.

Life can place many demands on us and our lived experiences can make it even more difficult to manage these. Our thoughts and feelings can make it hard to breathe, find motivation to do things, or cope with situations from the past, current moments, or new situations. They can keep us up at night or prevent us from moving forward. It is not easy, but you have taken the first step in the right direction and it would be my privilege to be a part of it. In the beginning, concrete strategies are developed to help with current symptoms and then progress into understanding why these feelings and thoughts exist.

I have a passion for helping couples and families work through difficulties and help everyone realize their strengths in order to work better together. My specialty is couple's therapy. I have conducted various marriage seminars through the years to help couples better their communication skills and provide tools to help couples turn toward each other and work through difficulties instead of turning away. My hope is that each couple will rediscover the qualities, uniqueness, and values that first caused them to want to spend their lives together.

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.
