Family Counselling Services in Connellys, ON.

At Turning Point Counselling we have a therapist that works with teens, children and parents or caregivers to deal with issues effecting the whole family. Common problems we see are: blending families, behavioural issues, tech/phone/gaming problems, problems at school, ADHD and rising rates of anxiety among kids and teens. Using a collaborative approach we create a space where everyone can feel seen and heard and problems resolved.

Family dynamics are complicated. Each family has established patterns, such as how everyone communicates within the family system, how they deal with stressful situations and conflict, their roles in the family unit and how members seek support from one another. While I do not offer family therapy sessions, my clinic, Psychotherapy Collective has many child and family therapists availability to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure they are the proper fit for your journey.

When I provide family therapy, I focus on helping each member understand their role in the family system and how their patterns affect communication, conflict, and emotional regulation. Clients benefit from my direct, structured approach. I help families identify exactly where communication breaks down, what triggers escalate conflict, and which dynamics keep them stuck. In sessions, I guide families in learning concrete skills such as active listening, setting boundaries, expressing needs clearly, and reducing reactive behaviours. I use a combination of systemic thinking, emotion-focused strategies, and DBT skills to help members stay regulated while talking about difficult topics.

Here at AG Counselling we also offer extensive support for youth and families. Another are of support we offer is parent coaching. The parents are given the opportunity to work with a trained therapist to improve their parenting styles and connect in deeper and more meaningful ways with their child. We provide treatment to children of all age, including somatic and EMDR therapy.

Family dynamics are complicated. Each family has established patterns, such as how everyone communicates within the family system, how they deal with stressful situations and conflict, their roles in the family unit and how members seek support from one another. In sessions, we seek to balance the needs of each individual to understand the dynamics between family members and how these dynamics are impacting the family as a whole.

Families can be created in a multiplicity of ways: we can be born into them; brought into them through adoption or other means; and sometimes their members consist of people who have a deep affinity for each other. In any form they take, "family" is synonymous with "in relationship," and these relationships must be nourished. In family counselling, I support families in building new communication pathways in order to process past injuries and strengthen connection. I specialize in pre-natal and postpartum family counselling.

Family dynamics can be challenging to navigate even during the best of times, and family therapy can help each member of the family unit find new ways to relate, connect, and communicate with each other. Giving each family member the chance to feel heard and valued while also navigating external stressors like work and school can be a struggle, so I work collaboratively with clients to identify and explore patterns of interaction that they want to strengthen or change, while highlighting each member’s contributions, and celebrating the family’s successes.

Within each family are the experiences of each family member. In family therapy, you, and your family can explore how each member’s roles and perspectives impact the family as a whole. You can learn to cultivate a family environment grounded in respect for individual experiences, sense of connection and shared understanding. I work with individuals, couples and families.

Many issues later in life can stem from stress and challenges that influence several family members. When parents face change or difficulty, children will inevitably feel the pressure as well, they need to understand what is going on in terms they can understand. Parents also need support, but in a different way than the children. Families often seek out Counselling to help support each member of the family, someone who can be supportive but neutral so as to diffuse strong emotions and encourage family members to deal with stress in a healthy way in order to build resilience. This is my approach to Family Therapy and I look forward to helping you and your family build resilience.

Family counselling for families with children and youth, takes many forms. I may see the whole family, or I may see parents alone as a part of therapy as well as seeing their child alone, but ultimately working towards healthier families. Every family is different and is offered what they need to help them work on their particular issues, build stronger communication, and connect more deeply.
