Family Counseling

“When the whole family grows, each member is better off.”

Our family affects who we are and who we become, both for the better and for worse. We learn how to communicate, handle our emotions, our habits, our customs and rituals, and how to view and observe the world around us from our families. 

Common reasons for seeking family counseling include:

  • Parent-child conflict
  • Communication issues
  • Parenting issues
  • Conflicts between siblings
  • Adjusting to divorce and major changes
  • Dealing with chronic illness or death in the family
  • The unexpected or traumatic loss of a family member

 

Some positive outcomes from family counseling are:

  • Reduces family conflict
  • Builds empathy and understanding
  • Fostered sense of connectedness and communication among family members
  • Teaches strategies to develop and maintain boundaries
  • Explored family patterns and dynamics
