Family Counselling Services in Rocky View County, AB.

Family life can be both rewarding and challenging, and sometimes it helps to have a safe space where everyone can be heard and understood. In my trauma-informed approach to Family Counseling, I support families in exploring patterns, resolving conflicts, and strengthening connections while honoring each member’s unique perspective. Using person-centered, somatic, and evidence-based methods, we work together to improve communication, build empathy, and create collaborative solutions. Families leave sessions feeling more connected, supported, and equipped to navigate life’s challenges together with greater resilience and understanding.

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.

Keystone Child and Family Therapy provides a systems approach to counseling, which includes marital and family therapy. Each family is unique in their strengths as well as their needs and Keystone aims to highlight these in the road to wellbeing. This type of therapy focuses on the interaction between family members to increase healthy attachment and positive relationships. Family therapy is offered in combination with play therapy for children to help strengthen parent-child relationships as well as support a child through their own counseling process.

Every family has their own way of doing things and although there can be moments of harmony, sometimes bonds can be disrupted and people require help to become reconnected. In family therapy, clients will learn to explore their own needs while strengthening and maintaining connections to family members. Much of this work includes acceptance, release, listening and awareness.

Cory has had over 15 years of practice doing family therapy using many different models including systemic theory, structural theory and strategic models... To name only a few. Not only has Cory been working with families for an extensive period of time but has been able to apply many of these skills to his own family/children. Cory's general belief is that although the complete family is preferred, family therapy can be done with only one or two individuals as long as we can impact change from just one source.

You’re not failing. You’re doing something incredibly hard. Whether you're parenting together, apart, or somewhere in between, our goal is simple: Support the adults so the kids don’t have to carry the weight.

It can be used to help the family through a difficult period of time, a major transition, or mental or behavioral health problems in family members.

My family therapy practice centers around helping teens be understood by their parents and family and with couples and parents who have lost their connection to their children. I often find that the best way to help teens is by helping them to be understood by their parents and so I often work with teens doing some sessions individually and regularly incorporate a session with the parent(s). With couples work, one parent might not approve of how the other parent's parenting style, so helping the children, and both parents be heard and understood can go a long way towards repairing relationships that have become strained.

If you or a loved one are struggling with a diagnosed mental health condition such as anxiety, bi-polar disorder or depression, it is probably putting the whole family under pressure. Dr Mervin (Paraklesis Counselling) can come alongside and help families understand and cope as a unit. Often family members are unsure how to deal with their family member’s treatment needs; sometimes they place pressure on them to stop or start medication; other times they struggle to keep their loved one compliant in taking the medication. A family session with Dr Mervin will not only inform on these matters, but will also help you manage the family dynamics surrounding it.
