Family Counselling Services in Georgetown, ON.

We all being life with a family, one that influences every aspect of our lives, from our first moments to our last. Our family shapes who we are and who we become. Within the family system we learn language, habits, customs and believes, how to view and observe the world around us and learn how to love, and how to interact with others from these first important relationships. Shauna's family therapy offers families a way to be healthy and happy through a structured, systems, attachment based approach – families learn to develop and maintain a healthy, functional family.

Families are complicated. This is why we work from a family systems approach as we do not believe that one person is the problem, but rather we look at ways to improve the overall family system so that things can flow more smoothly for all. Our family therapy can involve some, or all, family members. The focus of family therapy is to allow for everyone to feel heard, identify family strengths, and make adjustments for areas of improvement.

Our Emotionally Focused counselling approach revolutionizes family therapy, fostering secure attachment, emotional healing, and effective communication. By addressing underlying emotions and patterns, we create a safe space for families to express themselves authentically, leading to improved well-being. Our sessions empower families with practical tools to navigate conflicts, strengthening bonds and creating lasting positive change. Family members will be able to express their needs, listen actively, and validate each other's experiences. By enhancing communication patterns, families can better navigate conflicts and collaborate on finding solutions, creating a harmonious environment.

Are you a parent challenged by the illness of a child? Do you feel exhausted & sad at times? Has your partnership or marriage become strained? Is your family unit having trouble staying positive and enjoying one another due to stress and anxiety? I can help you develop coping strategies, restore balance, and manage the day to day challenges using brief solution focused therapy.

Families go through a lot together. Managing changes and transitions, experiencing illnesses and loss, as well as employment or school issues, divorce or trauma can be challenging to navigate and can lead to disagreements or differences within a family. As a family therapist working with your family, I will support you all in being able to share your experiences as a member of the family, better understand each other’s perspectives and work through difficult feelings in a safe, non-judgmental space to help you meet your goals.

Most family therapists inadvertently create more chaos through their well-intentioned efforts to assist a family move through a change process. Why? Brains are inherently deregulated (all of us, may I add) and most talking and dialoguing misses brain-centric problems that need more intensive help. Many times the emotional trauma created by years of solving problems ineffectively can wreak havoc on the brain's parasympathetic nervous system, not ever giving the family a break from flight or fight thinking.
