Family counseling is often a great way to help support family members working through a wide range of difficulties. Each member of a family is growing and developing at their own pace and in their own way. Often times conflict will arise between members due to insufficient understanding and a lack of proper communication. Family therapy can help clearly identify the conflict and how it is affecting ALL members of the family. It puts the power and responsibility for change on each member. Family therapy provides a compassionate, supportive place for members to hear, feel heard and build stronger, healthier connections.
Kathryn Kinsey, LCSW
Family counseling is the logical treatment of choice when couples are struggling to deal with a child having behavioral or social problems or when a family undergoes major changes - a new step-parent, the birth or loss of a family member, a move, disruption of the social support network, or marital discord. All members of the family may be included in the sessions and create a joint plan for working toward resolution of the problem or the sessions may focus on the parents working together to bring about positive change.

I provide family therapy for a variety of families including those with young children, teens and young adults. I help by having everyone present in the session to hear each other and to support each family member in being heard and understood. I help each person understand the underlying feelings that are often not seen, but have an impact when they are expressed as frustration or anger. Understanding each other to improve the closeness between family members can help resolve conflicts and provide a sense of safety and security.

Conflicts in a family can become so routine that it may be difficult for you to determine which issues are important and which have become automatic battles. I can provide your family a safe place to work through this with an objective and neutral perspective that allows everyone to hear and everyone to be heard. Frequent arguing, nagging, complaining - all intensify the stress of daily life. Your family can learn to live harmoniously - not perfectly without ever having conflict - but without the need for "winners" and "losers" in constant tug of wars. It is exhausting and unhealthy to live with tension in your home. Call me today and let's begin easing that tension and regaining calm.

Family therapy is the hallmark of counseling. All mental illness harkens back to family of origin issues.
To unweave the skein of family disorder is the essential gift only a few clinicians in the field have.
This is an area to which I have devoted much effort in my study and attention of family structures.
The negative messages that families pass down to their descendants last for generations unless contradicted by effective family intervention.

Family therapy involves an exploration of family conflict between parents and siblings. Our long-term goals is helping to reduce oppositional behavior, clarification/resolution/acceptance of past conflict, and to achieve a reasonable level of family connectedness and harmony where the family members can help, show concern, and connect with each other. We’ll work on resolving conflict by talking calmly and assertively rather than aggressively and defensively. For the teenager, we’ll work on increasing the level of independent functioning and developing a plan for healthy and responsible emancipation from parents.

We don't pick our families. They are a gift to us. However, unpleasant communication patterns within families, that have been left unchecked for too long can make it seem impossible to be in the same room with each other. Gender differences, Generation Gaps, identity crisis, spoken and unspoken expectations can rob us of the joy of family love and support. I can work with you to develop healthy patterns of relating, and communicating. Let's untangle old knots, and enjoy the closeness and support that comes with healthy family relationships.

Once conflicts are out in the open and there are ground rules and supportive structures to identify and resolve issues, family therapy can be truly inspiring. It is important for all to be fully heard and respected so each knows their input is valuable. Using a family system approach gives great flexibility to effectively target therapeutic work. Having everyone's "buy in", consistent participation, perceived even-handedness, and engender good faith are essential for the process to work. Benefits include: no more walking on eggshells, rescuing or enabling; more effective communication / relating; increased self-responsibility; and have tools to trouble shoot and form workable agreements.
Marjorie Muentz
Family therapy not only reduces conflict but brings balance to the family where all members are heard and valued. We may change roles the different members play to try to ways of communicating and block collusion between members at the expense of other family members. Bringing in people alienated and disengaged to join the others who invite them in with the common goal of mutual respect for differences and yet remaining connected.

Matt Lindgren offers family therapy in Oakland to help adults & children adjust to deaths, births, child behavioral problems, & attachment problems, & childhood trauma. Why not use therapy to build & strengthen your relationships with family and friends? Have someone help you move past stumbling blocks & old resentments and pain toward healthy relationship of love and respect. Can you think of a better way to invest your time & money than to grow closer to the people you love? I practice systems theory, a scientific theory that describes how complex systems, like ecosystems function. Systems theory focuses on how families find balance between resisting change and adapting to new information.

Family life if complicated. Not only do we bring our own baggage to the relationship but all of the other family members bring theirs too. Many of the issues that come up are communications issues and many are due to our nervous systems being either on hyper alert or shut down from past traumas and an overaccumulation of daily strresses. Working as a team we build on the strengths of the couple/family and we also tease apart the less functional areas to understand them more fully. Then we devise a plan for working with the issues. That might involve working as a couple/family or it might involve individual session to resolve whatever issues we each bring into our relationships.
Robert Hardman, MA, MDIV
Through family therapy, I seek to help families or individuals within a family learn better ways to interact with each other and resolve conflicts. If your family is feeling torn apart, family therapy may help you heal. As a family, I help you examine your family's ability to solve problems and express thoughts and emotions. You maybe invite to explore family roles, rules and behavior patterns in order to identify issues that contribute to conflict — as well as ways to work through these issues. Being in counseling as a family may help you identify your family's strengths, such as caring for one another, and weaknesses, such as difficulty confiding in one another.
Mark Hirschfield
As well as child, individual and couples counseling, I specialize and am very successful as a family counselor. I have extensive experience, working with just parent and child, siblings or a whole large extended family. I use a family systems form of therapy, which is very interactive and allows each member of the family to feel understood, empathized with and find resolution. Please go to my website for more information at www.markhirschfield.com.

Family therapy is usually called for when families are in transition such as the addition of new family member, launching of a child, or when there is grief & loss or crisis. It is during this times when the family needs to be adaptable, but problems arise when the family fails to adapt to the changes. I will assess the family relational dynamics, challenge them to learn new ways of relating to each other and adapt to the changes. I give each member in therapy a voice to speak and share their needs, wants, and desires. They learn how to communicate and problem solve effectively. I do provide a free consultation, if clients ask me.

Lawrence Tunis, Ed.D, LMFT
I subscribe to the Gottman method which teaches effective listening, softening tools and mutual respect and value for each family member. Family therapy is one of my favorite areas and I love to see couples and families relearn how to experience the love they share for one another and give every family member a voice so they can gain self esteem that they can bring out in to the world
Cliff Crain, MFT
Many families are suffering behind closed doors. As a husband and father, I know from personal experience that family-life can be challenging. A few parents may have been lucky enough to have grown-up in peaceful families. They are the fortunate few who have had effective parenting modeled for them.
Most of us can benefit from family therapy. I start with a PARENT CONSULTATION, to uncover and explore the painful issues a family is dealing with currently.
We can, together, create a family-success-plan. If you are struggling with the relationships in your family, please give me a call at 925-855-1745.
