Family therapy services in 60431: Joliet, IL. Relationship and couples counseling.

In family therapy I treat the dynamic of the relationship between family members. We all have a deep need to belong and feel accepted by others. This starts in our family of origin. If things are preventing us from feeling accepted by our families we seek other places to feel that connection. By helping each person feel heard, understood and accepted by their family members we can create significant change.

My goal in working with couples and families is to restore hope and a love to battered relationships. I believe in using a mix of practical assessment skills, creativity and humor with a genuine commitment to marriage and families. In addition, I lovingly challenge individuals to look at themselves and identify what is holding them back from fully loving each other. I offer dynamic and powerful trainings and assessments that will propel families and couples forward more quickly. My heart is to help couples and parents once again experience grace to see their loved ones the way God does.

Is your family dealing with a major life transition, such as divorce or death of a loved one? Or is one family member dealing with something that is impacting the whole family? Family therapy is a very effective way of helping with either of these situations. When you see me for family therapy, we will create a plan together to help your unique situation through improving communication, problem-solving, and coping skills. Give me a call today for a free consultation and we can put together a preliminary plan over the telephone.

Every family has its own unique challenges. Whether you're facing conflict, communication issues, or transitions, I provide a supportive environment where each member can feel heard and respected. Through family therapy, we’ll improve communication, rebuild trust, and create healthier patterns so your family can thrive and grow together with more understanding and unity.

I work with families in all stages of their journey—navigating change, conflict, or simply longing for deeper connection. Together, we’ll create a safe, compassionate space to slow down, listen differently, and understand one another more fully. Old patterns often form out of protection or pain, and with care, we’ll gently untangle them. My role is to support your family in building new ways of relating—rooted in empathy, honesty, and hope.
