Family Counseling Services in Delray Beach, FL.

Family systems have a huge impact on our life. There has always been the argument between nature and nurture as to the cause of any emotional issues we face. The reality is there is some of both involved. It is usually the client who comes in for the counseling but a lot of the solution is found in the family system. Many influences and issues are passed through generations of a family. Therefore there are times when it is profitable to work with the entire family in counseling. Although we are not committed to solely a family systems approach to counseling we do recognize the need to address family issues that are often personified in the member with the perceived problem.

As Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists, we provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for helping our clients to take steps toward their goals. Family therapy can be done with one or more people in the session. We can work with you individually to explore and gain insight into your family relationships, and we can also invite family members to join and be part of the process.

Do you feel disconnected from your wife or kids? Does it feel like you’ve lost control of your home? Or have you experienced something difficult within your family that’s not been resolved? If so, I can help. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I’m an expert in relationships, and have been trained to identify the patterns within families that aren’t working, develop healthier ones, improve communication and understanding, and help families forge a new path forward. This often looks like a combination of family sessions, parent sessions, and individual sessions. I provide online therapy over HIPAA-secure video, and if given the opportunity, would be honored to serve your family.

My approach to family counseling is rooted in a systemic and strengths-based perspective, recognizing that every family is a unique emotional unit shaped by culture, generational patterns, and life transitions. I work collaboratively with families to improve communication, deepen empathy, and address the underlying dynamics contributing to conflict or disconnection. By creating a safe and inclusive space, I help each member feel heard and valued while fostering healthier interaction patterns. Families benefit by gaining clarity, strengthening their bonds, and developing more effective ways to navigate challenges together, ultimately building a more resilient and connected family system.

Family therapy sessions foster a safe, neutral space for all members to express themselves, understand each other better, and strengthen relationships. Whether you're dealing with conflict, significant life changes, or communication breakdowns, we help families work through challenges together. With guidance and support, you’ll learn healthier ways to connect, resolve tension, and build a more supportive and resilient family dynamic. Family therapy fosters understanding, healing, and lasting change together, as a unit.

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.
