Family Therapy in Southfield, MI
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, my approach is systemic, collaborative, and integrative, with you—the Journeyer—at the heart of every step.
Change is a constant in life, often catching us off guard and leaving us feeling out of sync. Whether we're questioning if we changed too soon, resisting change, or simply unaware that change is necessary, this discord can lead to emotional and physical difficulties. We might find ourselves in unfamiliar territory or uncertain of how to navigate our current circumstances. As your Therapist, or as I like to call myself, your Journey Agent, I'm here to guide you to your desired destination, even if that destination is finding peace in where you are right now.

My specialty is working with those who are experiencing: -Relationship issues -Absent parenting issues -Anti-social personality -Depression - Family counseling -Anger management -Marriage issues -Peer relationships.
My ideal client are young males ages 6-18, and married men who want to be better husbands and fathers. Growing up in households without male role models often has boys/men needing guidance. Without guidance can lead to current and future family dysfunction leading to divorce, duplicating fatherless homes, and making bad choices in life. I UNDERSTAND what it is like to have that "absent father void". I also understand what it is like to be a husband trying his best to become "that good father and husband" to his wife. Let's talk about how to get there. Please stay encouraged.

I also consult with family businesses to assist in succession, sibling relationships and organizational structure.
The primary factor that determines if therapy is helpful is the "fit" between therapist and patient, i.e., degree of comfort, ease of communication, agreement on what problems are to be addressed and sense of safety. My approach to treatment is guided by my initial assessment of individuals or couples, wherein I learn why help is being sought and way the specific problems are experienced. This helps me form a picture of what has lead to the problems that bring people to seek help. We then determine together if how I'm thinking is helpful.

A core part of humanity is to feel belonging. Many people experience that most intensely during childhood from their family and friends. As we grow older we develop other relationships that give us that sense of belonging. When you experience injuries to those relationships it can leave yo feeling isolated and depressed. When those injuries happen during childhood it is referred to as developmental trauma. But trauma is not a life sentence, in fact what many people don't know is that post-traumatic growth is more common than Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I work with individuals and families who want to understand trauma and grow.

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.
