Family Therapy

Family Therapy

We begin life with a family and our family plays a role in who we are, who we've become, for the better and for worse. Whether they are blood relatives, a foster family, or adopted parents, anyone who plays a significant long term supportive role in one's life can be considered family. From our first moments of life to our last, the family we are born into will influence every aspect of life from our habits, our customs and traditions to how we view, observe and react to the world around us. Family also teaches us how to love and how to build happy and healthy relationships in our interaction with others. We don't get to choose our family and sometimes that family struggles to connect, unknowingly laying the ground work in life for our struggle to connect. More families than not deal with some level of dysfunction at one time or another and most are able to recover and maintain a sense of balance and happiness. Family therapy is designed to specifically address issues that are affecting the harmony and positive functioning of the family unit.
