The family is the most powerful shaping force in any person’s life. When family systems are struggling—whether from conflict, trauma, a member’s mental health or addiction, or simply the accumulated weight of unspoken things—family therapy offers a structured space to interrupt harmful patterns and build something healthier.

How It Works
Family therapy typically begins with a joint session to assess the full system, followed by a flexible combination of family sessions and individual work as indicated. We use family systems theory, Structural Family Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Family Therapy to identify patterns and create new ones.
Who This Is For
We work with families of all structures—biological, blended, adoptive, same-sex parent, multigenerational, and more. Sessions can include whoever is part of the relevant system, from young children to grandparents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does everyone have to come to every session?
Not necessarily. The configuration of who attends is flexible and determined by the therapeutic goals.
Can family therapy help even if one person won’t participate?
Yes. Working with even part of the family system can produce significant change.
Is family therapy covered by insurance?
Yes, when one family member has a clinical diagnosis. We’ll clarify coverage during intake.
What if family members have very different views on the problem?
That’s extremely common—and exactly what family therapy is designed to work with. Different perspectives are treated as information, not obstacles.
