Family therapy services in 32179: Ocklawaha, FL. Relationship and couples counseling.

Family therapy can benefit all members of the family to learn how to effectively communicate and to help parents with effective parenting tools to help with difficult behaviors. Co-parenting and blended families are especially vulnerable to problems with communication and healthy relationship building. I use Family Systems therapy to help families with these struggles.

Although individual counseling is important in your healing process, adding family counseling in addition with individual sessions helps to provide a holistic approach to your therapy. Family counseling can range from support from one's family in an individuals healing or working together as a family to strengthen the bond of the family system. It is important each member feels worthy within the family and has a voice. Family counseling can help you and your family interact and communicate more effectively.

My approach to family therapy is simple and effective. It is what I jokingly refer to as “English to English translation”. I can teach you how to talk to your teen(s) in a way that will be heard and understood. I can show your children the benefits of talking & listening to you. Once we have improved overall communication in the home problems that do come up will be resolved much faster and with noticeably less stress. You can transform your family from a source of frustration to a source of joy. Parenting & raising a family can be tough, but when done well can also be rewarding. And yes, I have more than just book knowledge on this subject. I have been married since 2007, & have 3 children.

I have considerable experience in family therapy with families dealing with divorce or instability in home life, physical or mental abuse issues, addiction and its impacts, physical or mental illnesses in the family, and school performance, attendance, or discipline issues. I have worked with families to help create discipline strategies and coping mechanisms for children who are defiant or resistant to parental discipline.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am specially trained in working with families. Family therapy provides some of the most notable breakthrough in a therapy setting. You do not function in a vacuum. Your behaviors, reactions, and interactions with each other have a chain reaction that affect the climate of your family. Family therapy provides an exciting opportunity to become aware of these interactions, and know each other more intimately. Frequently, this provides breakthrough and change. I will help you to utilize strengths previously ignored.
