Licensed Clinical Psychologist

Often one member of a family carries and acts out the hidden issues that lie beneath the surface of family life. Children often unconsciously inherit the unresolved problems that have not adequately been dealt with by their parents. Blended families make the situation even harder to understand. I can help you diagnose and deal with the issues behind the difficult behaviors that you see in one or more of your family members. Families are strongest when people can count on each other to be there for one another and open discussions lead to health behavior changes.

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.

When one member of a family is affected, the entire family system is also affected. The most effective way to address any issues is to work with all family members together. Whether you are dealing with addiction, abuse, mood disorders, loss and grief, child and adolescent issues, parenting problems, or divorce, the best way to begin the healing process is to bring the family together in a safe and supportive, therapeutic environment. Contact Mariah today to discuss how your family benefit from counseling. Schedule your free family counseling consultation by calling (970) 227-2770.
