Family Therapy
Growing up, you dreamed of having the perfect family.
You promised yourself, “I won’t be anything like my parents.”
Yet here you are, watching yourself repeat those same mistakes.
You never learned how to express your feelings or communicate openly.
Now you feel stuck and don’t know how to fix things.
Your family is precious, more valuable to you than anything else.
But you find yourself feeling disappointed and frustrated at home most of the time.
The same arguments happen repeatedly and never lead to change.
Sometimes you listen to yourself and can’t believe it. You sound like a broken record.
You want to get back on track.
Family therapy can help.
ALL families need support.
Every member of the family is important.
Families are complex and made up of unique individuals with different personalities, feelings, and needs.
Family therapy provides a space for all to be supported as you discuss family issues.
Love and respect are central.
What does it mean to show “love”? What does it mean to show “respect”?
These words mean different things to different generations, genders, and cultures, even within the same family.
Family therapy is where love and respect can be defined and practiced so they can continue to grow and flourish.
Everyone deals with emotions differently.
Some people become quiet and stay to themselves. Others are more outward in their expression of emotions.
In family therapy, members of all ages can learn to identify, express, and regulate their feelings in safe, intelligent ways.
Heightened emotional intelligence can improve mental health within the entire family system and is useful outside the home.
Communication is key.
We first learn to communicate within our family system, and often there are unhealthy patterns.
In family therapy, we learn how to communicate about difficult things. We learn to listen better and speak about our feelings and needs.
As communication improves within the family, everyone can relax and enjoy time together at home more often.
Learning together as a family is important.
When families learn things together in therapy, they can practice and reinforce skills and strategies between sessions at home.
Family therapy helps treat various mental health issues by removing isolation and secrecy.
