Family Counseling Services in Dacono, CO.

Family therapy is based on the belief that each family is a unique social system with its own structure and patterns of communication. These patterns are determined by many factors, including the parents' beliefs and values as well as the personalities of all family members. I assist in identifying conflicts and anxieties and helping families develop strategies to resolve issues and strengthen family members so they can work on their challenges together. During therapy sessions, the family's strengths are used to help handle challenges and all members take responsibility.

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.

No matter your family structure, family is one of the most influential aspects of our lives. I believe that our experiences with our family helps define who we are and how we exist in the world.

Family can be our main source of comfort and safety. It can also be a source of conflict, and difficulty. We spend the most time with our family, so if there's ongoing conflict, life at home can be tough. Family therapy is about getting to see the underlying needs in each other, and meeting those needs so that we can let go of the conflict and move forward. As humans, we all have the same needs and emotions, so they work as a universal language. I will help you get to the root of family conflict so you can all get your needs met and move forward.
