Family Counseling Services in Hebron, OH.

Family systems therapy draws on systems thinking in its view of the family as an emotional unit. When systems thinking—which evaluates the parts of a system in relation to the whole—is applied to families, it suggests behavior is both often informed by and inseparable from the functioning of one’s family of origin. Families experiencing conflict within the unit and seeking professional assistance to address it may find family systems therapy a helpful approach.

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 dysregulated (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.

Family therapy, or family counseling, is a form of psychotherapy that entails working with family members or domestic members to address and resolve conflicts, enhance communication, and strengthen relationships. Family therapy focuses primarily on the dynamics and interactions within the family system, as opposed to the individual members. Family therapy is only effective if all family members are willing to participate and collaborate toward positive change actively. Family therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues, such as communication issues, conflicts, behavioral difficulties, and adjusting to life transitions.

I will work with families that find themselves in a dynamic they are unable to change on their own. I will teach them how family systems work and guide them through the process of reconciliation and redemption. This may be a combination of individual, couples or group sessions. My background in mediation also equips me to facilitate group discussion and foster an environment of trust.

Family therapy offers a space for families to address and resolve conflicts, improve communication, and strengthen their relationships. It helps family members understand each other’s perspectives, navigate challenges, and develop healthier ways of interacting. Through therapy, families can work together to create a more supportive and harmonious environment, fostering stronger connections and emotional resilience.

Families have challenges for a variety of reasons. Sometimes parents struggle with kids because of challenges they experienced growing up. Other times families will struggle due to life changes including death, divorce, or remarriage. Whatever challenges your family might be facing we will work together to understand where they are coming from and develop practical, reasonable ways to start to turn them around.
