Family therapy services in 18443: Milanville, PA. Relationship and couples counseling.

Our approach to Family Therapy focuses on the individual strengths of each family member, as well as their unique role within the family system. Our therapists may see families together and individually. Through mutual cooperation and trust, our goal is to mend, heal and enhance any family system. Some families may even wish to utilize our services before issue may arise.

The family therapy I do is in situations when a child or teen is acting out. A child or teen might be defiant, or aggressive, or failing in school, or in trouble with the law or abusing substances or lying excessively or acting promiscuously, or some combination of these and other negative behaviors. The family therapy I do is preceded by a thorough and state-of-the art evaluation of both the youth and the youth's system. I then set measurable goals with a family and follow it up with behaviorally oriented family therapy. In this approach, there are specific and structured strategies brought to bear and home, and often and school, to enhance a child or teen's odds of being highly successful.
