Families are complicated systems that start with birth and continue throughout life, regardless of age. Finding new ways to relate to family members that reduce or eliminate turmoil and lead to more satisfaction for everyone involved is the aim of family therapy. From parenting dilemmas with children within the home, blended families, co-parenting through divorce, or adults having difficulty with parents later in life, there is a way to calm the troubled waters and emerge refreshed with clear solutions in hand.

Familes create complicated systems and part of my work is to identify the systems that are in place. Some of what I look for include identifying the roles each member takes, the communication patterns, power issues, where aliances form, the rule system (both spoken and unspoken rules), Family work is both challenging and rewarding as we work together to establish strong family bonds, heal past wounds and improve communication

In working as a family you can learn communication skills which will enable you to discuss feelings and conflicts in a more peaceful way. Truly understanding each other's perspectives, even thought they may be different from yours, is a vital part of resolving conflict. As you understand one another, a compromise may be reached that works for everyone and allows a more peaceful way of interacting.

Family therapy looks at the entire family system—parents, children, extended family members—to identify strengths and problematic behaviours. I collaborate with families on strategies for utilizing their own capabilities for resolving problems, and on developing effective communication and problem-solving skills for preventing conflicts. I specialize in working with families of teenagers, which is an age that can be challenging for both the teenagers and their parents.

Families operate as a system, where what each person does affects the others and the family dynamics as a whole. My goal in Family Therapy is to help each person within the family to have a voice and to know their value and also reflect on how they impact the family as a whole. We often take certain roles in our family and operate under these roles out of habit. It is important to examine what role we have taken up and whether that fits with who we are and who we want to be. There is room for everyone to have autonomy in a family and still be a part of the system.

Most family therapists inadvertently create more chaos through their well-intentioned efforts to assist a family move through a change process. Why? Brains are inherently deregulated (all of us, may I add) and most talking and dialoguing misses brain-centric problems that need more intensive help. Many times the emotional trauma created by years of solving problems ineffectively can wreak havoc on the brain's parasympathetic nervous system, not ever giving the family a break from flight or fight thinking.

Working with teens and families is one of my favorite aspects of my practice. Learning about each individual family's culture--the unspoken rules, the traditional ways of communicating and setting boundaries, is the first step to bringing about the changes that many families long for: increased intimacy, improved communication, safety, trust, belonging. We also provide programming for families with an addicted member. Learning ways to deepen insight, improve communication, set strong flexible boundaries and enjoy leaning into a morning or afternoon of self care proves for an empowering opportunity for growth and healing.

Families can be extremely frustrating. No one knows better than our family how to push our buttons. Fights tend to go the same way every time. I work with families to discover their underlying patterns and work to change those patterns to lead different outcomes. The family therapy process can be chaotic, but my approach leads to peace at the end of the chaos.

I like to help people get a long better. Relationships are vitally important to our existence as human beings and they are highly valued by our Creator God. Learning how to love one another - especially those within our own family - is paramount. My desire is to restore proper boundaries, help mediate conflict, and to empower parents and children.
