Family Counseling Services in Interlachen, FL.

In order to make sense of distressful events, we are well served to spend some time processing the family system from which we have each emerged. Our current story has been formed by our back story, which always includes the influence of those who were forming us in the earliest years of our lives. The family system is a powerful force in the life of the individual. Whether you are an individual taking a look at family of origin issues or meeting in therapy as an entire family, we will explore family structures that may be contributing to the problem as well as strength that can be a resource for flourishing.

Let me guess. One partner feels alone and like they don't matter and the other feels they are always being criticized and can't get anything right. The more one asks for the other to show up, the more the partner disappears physically and emotionally. You both bicker and fight and the idea of sitting and just hanging out seems elusive, if not impossible. Something like this? Often we crave connection but are blocked by the pain and the history that gets in the way. Small fights about little things become battles that highlight our struggle to have our basic relational needs met. I can help you get under the bickering to the parts crying out for connection- to an enriching relationship.

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.

Families are complicated! They are always changing but many families resist movement towards changing the rules of the family system because what you know feels safer than what you don't. That's ok! As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I know how family systems communicate, organize, and deal with small and big traumas and together, we can find the dysfunctional patterns in your family to turn the corner to a healthier family dynamic.

Family therapy is a type of counseling that involves all members of a family (whatever form that comes in). I engage the family in multiple sessions to help them deal with important issues that may interfere with the day to day life of the family and the home. My goal of family therapy is to help family members improve communication, problem solve, and gain an understanding of special family circumstances; ultimately creating a better functioning home structure.
