Financial concerns, relationship issues, family conflict, anxiety, depression, or something else, life can be hard to walk alone.
As we all go through life trying our best to stay afloat and happy, sometimes asking for help can seem like the hardest thing to do. I believe that people have within themselves the ability and strength to enact meaningful change in their lives. By working in a collaborative manner with a client-led and person-centered approach, finding motivation and unearthing hidden strengths can lead to positive change and new outlook on life. By utilizing new coping skills and building a therapeutic alliance, we can work other to overcome those previously insurmountable waves of life. My Practice is Taking New Patients for Psychiatric Care!

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.
