Are you feeling depressed, anxious, or extremely fatigued and overwhelmed? Have you or a family member experienced trauma or are you grieving? Do you have issues related to abuse, neglect, or domestic violence? Are you a parent concerned about your child's mood or behavior or do you want to improve your relationship with a child, parent, or a spouse?.
Life can be pretty stressful these days, and it can be difficult to find HOPE. Are you experiencing frustration handling life challenges, managing a relationship, or coping with a health issue? Psychotherapy is a powerful tool to combat these hardships. I apply a variety of approaches to assist clients in understanding themselves, coping with their difficulties, and achieving their goals for a HOPEFUL future. As the therapeutic process promotes awareness, obstacles are understood. Gaining insight leads the way to learning new coping strategies and a more gratifying life becomes possible.

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.
