Family Therapy

In family therapy the set of relationships among family members is the focus of treatment. In family therapy I can help you recognize how these relationships are related to the current difficulties experienced by one or more family members and work together to improve these relationships. In family therapy, the goal is not to assign blame. Rather, the goal is to develop new ways of interacting with one another that promote healthy, loving relationships.

Family therapy sessions are often combined with individual, couples, and play therapy sessions.

Family therapy may be beneficial for families who . . .
             are struggling with divorce or remarriage
             have recently experienced a stressful event, such as a move or new job
             have recently experienced the death or loss of a loved one
             are struggling with the effects of alcoholism or drug abuse
             are having difficulty adjusting to the birth of a sibling
             are experiencing conflict that they don't feel they can handle on their own
