Family Counseling Services in Berkley, CO.

In family therapy, I draw on the work of both Virginia Satir and Michael White to create a collaborative space where each family member feels valued. Inspired by Satir’s emphasis on connection and authenticity, we explore family dynamics without placing blame on any one person, seeking instead to understand how certain patterns have taken shape. Using White’s narrative approach, we also look at the stories each person holds about their role within the family, inviting re-authoring conversations that foster empathy, resilience, and a sense of belonging. Together, we build on shared values to create a supportive, growth-oriented environment for all.

While all families have their own dynamics and communicate with each other in their own individual ways, sometimes our psychological health can be affected by family miscommunication and tensions. Whatever the presenting issue is, engaging in family therapy can be a beneficial way to mediate your conversations and improve your family dynamics. Jamie Smiertelny can provide useful tools for you and your family to help support each other and improve psychological health through healthy relationships.

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.

Mariah Severud approaches family counseling with a systemic and collaborative mindset, recognizing that each family member plays an important role in the overall dynamic. Unlike couples counseling, which centers on the romantic relationship, family counseling focuses on improving communication, boundaries, and functioning across the entire family unit. Mariah works with parents, children, adolescents, and blended families to address conflict, parenting challenges, and generational patterns in a balanced and respectful space. Using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care, she helps families build emotional regulation skills, strengthen understanding, and create healthier, more supportive relationships at home.
