Family Counseling Services in Tipp City, OH.

I believe in treating the family as a "unit", while at once realizing the uniqueness of each individual member. One or more individuals who are struggling with issues within the family system impacts the remaining family members. I strongly believe that the parent/parents/step-parents are the foundation of the family and it is this influence which sets the tone for family harmony. I also understand the complex dynamics in a blended family situation and work with these families to gain a new respect and understanding for each other, given their specific needs and desires. I will work with you to assess your family's strengths and resources to prompt change in a variety of problem areas.

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.

There is a time and a place for each person to work on himself/herself individually. However, we are rarely alone. Many of us live within a family system. As in all systems, there are strengths and there are challenges. We will use the strengths to create solutions to the issues. First by indentification, then by understanding. We will work with respect and compassion that is reflected in the communication and coping skills of the family.
