Are you talking about starting a family, your life with a baby, toddler or small children? Whether planned now or later, the reality of becoming and being parents is life changing. Have the two of you shared your expectations and visions of family life? Do you know when you will be ready, who will do what, and how this fits with your personal needs and goals? Parenting is emotionally rewarding and demanding, and requires team work. How are you doing with each other, understanding differences in your experiences and needs? This is an opportunity to strengthen your loving relationship.

I believe that individuals are uniquely designed with an inner connectedness spanning our cognitive, physical, emotional and spiritual experiences. Because of this design, health and healing are best found through strengthening each of these interconnected elements of our being. My therapeutic approaches are based upon this belief. With couples, I use a hope-focused (strengths based) approach, while examining the family dynamics, or "systems" that are in effect. When working with individuals, I use Cognitive Behavioral approach (CBT), client-centered and systems approaches to holistically facilitate growth, healing and increased self-awareness.

Being a caregiver of a child means putting on multiple hats, whether it be a teacher, nurse, coach, or entertainer. Caring for a child who is struggling may lead to grabbing as many hats as you can in an effort to support them or make them feel better. Wearing multiple hats is hard and can be exhausting. Trying to constantly choose the right one to wear often leads us asking ourselves “Are there more hats I need to try?” I look forward to supporting your child, your family, and you to address these struggles and to straighten out those hats.

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.
