Family
Therapy

Are you experiencing difficulty communicating with your spouse/children/family members? Is your son or daughter struggling in school, following rules at home, or having behavioral problems? Family members interact and affect each other in profound ways. Families function best when there are appropriate hierarchies and boundaries – i.e., spouses or partners function as a team in their marriage and, if they are parents, in child rearing.

​

The degree of supervision and independence children need may vary according to their personalities, developmental stage and environment. For families to be a safe haven of love and respect, they must adapt to change while maintaining their cohesiveness. When difficulties arise between family members, family therapy can be effective in re-establishing roles, boundaries and healthy communication patterns.
