Family Therapy

You don’t even know how your family got here…

… but suddenly you look up from the daily flow of life and don’t like what you see. The family members are disconnected from each other. You see the resentment and unwanted habits forming.

You don’t understand how to get through to your parents, and all you want to do is avoid going home. Looking at other families and wondering if there’s a secret that you just don’t know.

“Nobody understands me.”

Your family is supposed to be your biggest support, but it feels like the source of your stress right now.

All families go through difficult life transitions. Maybe it’s losing a job, divorce, moving homes, health issues, or death. You are barely navigating it for yourself and have no idea how to do it together as a family.

Trying to reestablish connection…

In the heat of the moment, you go back into your cycles of hurt, anger, and disconnection. On top of that, life is moving so fast for everyone in your family. Everyone has their own schedules and life, and relationships and slowing down seems impossible.

You fear the person that comes out when you’re talking with your kids.

“Where did that come from?”

You put off talking with them about that concerning behavior their teacher talked to you about and hope that your partner will take care of it this time. But your partner is working late again, and you don’t really know what to think about that.

It’s a flurry of activities and dinner and errands, and it starts all over again.

“My family is just stressed right now because its busy…”

… but deep down, you wonder if it will ever change. It feels like any moment something is going to give, and you don’t know what you would do then.

You would love to move past the pain and start to connect to the people you love.

You want to see a change in your family, but…

… you don’t even know where to start.

Families are the basic structures of human relationship and connection.

Family can look and feel so many different ways. Your family is unique. There is no other family like yours. It has its own unique dynamics and rhythms and relationships that make it yours.

Family therapy helps you understand your role in your family and how to navigate relationships with the people you call family.

For the hundredth time, you hear your partner say what they’ve always said; but it hits you like a ton of bricks.They are just as lonely and scared as you. You really hear them for the first time in a long time and start to think that maybe the person you fell in love with is in there.

You will understand how families function as a whole and as individual parts through healthy boundaries and communication.
