Therapy for Families

If you and your neurodivergent family are struggling to connect with each other and keep the peace in your home, family therapy can be incredibly transformative. I have seen positive shifts in family relationships in just a short amount of time when families come together and heal through the therapy process. I get it, families and relationships can be incredibly messy and painfully complicated. When there is an imbalance or stressor in the family system, this can impact all members of the family and their overall sense of wellbeing. This can lead to what I call “survival mode family functioning” which unintentionally promotes unbalanced family relationships and  persistent feelings of disconnect from your loved ones. Long term, family functioning in survival mode is unsustainable and can exacerbate conflicts in the family relationships.

I typically will meet with parents and/or partners first before inviting children to join a session. I am flexible in my approach and guide family therapy needs based on your presenting problems and goals we set together at the outset of our first sessions.  We can work together in pairs, individually at times, and together as a whole family depending on needs while respecting appropriate boundaries and supporting healthy communication.
