Family Counselling Services in Kawartha Lakes, 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 therapy is aimed at addressing and improving the dynamics within a family unit. By involving all members in the therapeutic process, family therapy aims to uncover and resolve issues that affect the family's overall functioning and relationships. My goal is to work collaboratively with the family to discover the family dynamics and systems that exist and to facilitate improved communication and connection between its members. Ideally, family therapy aims to help members support each other’s emotional needs in the here and now, ultimately promoting a healthier and more cohesive family environment.

It can be hard to know where to start when trying to address conflict within the family because each member is unique and may have very different concerns and goals. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive environment to foster family healing while also honouring individual differences. My approach to family therapy is rooted in the healing power of relationships and focuses on collaboration to create shared meaning. Reach out today to learn more about my approach and your journey to healing and book a free 15-minute consultation.

My background in relational therapy allows me to understand individuals through the relationships they cohabit. Families come in various forms and sizes, and at times, navigating through these relational dynamics and understanding differing perspectives may be difficult. Throughout our time together, we will work to make each member’s voice heard, find ways of communication that feel helpful, and establish and restore connection. Please reach out for a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Gestalt therapy is a systems‐oriented, immediate‐experience‐oriented, and affect‐oriented therapy that is highly effective for families. Unlike other therapies, gestalt regards the client system's emergent processes as the central focus, and it emphasizes that growth occurs as the family and its members are helped to greater self‐awareness and responsibility for their own functioning. Dynamic forces within your family may need some the maintenance. How can a sense of peace and equilibrium be brought back into your home? I am not afraid to work with intense emotional outbreaks. I can help support family unity with strength and care! Develop better ways of communicating with each other!

Family therapy at Neurodiversity Aware Therapy supports families in understanding differences, improving communication, and reducing conflict in ways that feel respectful and sustainable. Our approach recognizes that family challenges often arise from mismatched expectations, stress, or unmet needs rather than individual fault. Therapy focuses on clarity, collaboration, and practical strategies that help families build trust, strengthen relationships, and support one another more effectively.
