Family therapy services in 32967: Vero Beach, FL. Relationship and couples counseling.

I enjoy helping families restore broken communication and emotional disconnection that can threaten the family cohesiveness . I believe the ultimate goal of family therapy is to tightened the family bond by helping each member of the family gain insight into their impact and influence on the family unit as a whole. Finally, my goal is to help families maintain healthy marital relationships, increase parental management skills and resolve sibling relational issues.

As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I work from a systems perspective, in that we affect and are affected by the relationships in our lives. Whether they are family-of-origin, partner, parent-child, work, or friendships, when there is balance and harmony in these relationships, our lives flow with greater ease, clarity, and quality. Examples of the family work I enjoy involves assisting a couple transform their marriage into the vibrant relationship they remember from courtship, helping a family create a co-parenting plan post divorce that will aid in the family's healing and transition, or providing a workshop to help expecting parents transition more smoothly to parenthood.

I can offer you help with your children who are dealing with disabilities or emotional problems. I was a special education teacher for many years. Through my experiences with children, I learned what children need to be successful and motivated. I can offer alternatives to punishment. I can help you find new ways of understanding and relating to your troubled child.

Families can experience any stressful events that take a toll on the family unit, such as financial issues, divorce/remarriage, or the death of a loved one. In addition, other mental health concerns can impact the family as a whole, such as depression, substance abuse, chronic illness, communication issues/conflict, or behavioral problems in children and adolescents. Family Therapy aims to promote understanding and collaboration among family members in order to solve the problems of one or more individuals.
