Family Counselling Services in King City, ON.

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.

I often find that dealing with mental health and addiction issues is not possible unless we deal with the structural issues of the family. I use a family systems approach where relationships are seen as two-way and reciprocal. It's not about who did what, it's about our relationship skills and ability to manage having a family. It's about being healthy rather than being right. Sometimes you need to make a strong move in order to get the whole family system to shift. Let's figure what to do together as it is often too difficult to handle alone.

Family counseling is a unique form of counseling that focuses on improving the relationships and communication within a family unit. I believe that this approach can be particularly effective in helping clients to resolve conflicts, build stronger relationships, and develop more effective coping mechanisms. One of the key benefits of family counseling is that it can provide clients with a safe and supportive environment to communicate and address their concerns. Family members can learn to express themselves more effectively, listen to one another with empathy, and work collaboratively towards a common goal.

There can be moments where there is a disconnect within your family. This can feel isolating and it may feel like you aren't being heard/understood. In family counselling, we will create a safe environment where all members are able to express their emotions/feelings. We will work together to foster healthier communication by introducing new skills and strategies.

Feeling like your family could use a tune-up? Family life is amazing, but sometimes it gets a little out of sync. In our sessions, we'll work together in a warm and welcoming space to create a more harmonious family unit. I understand that every family is unique, with different personalities and challenges. Using my background in medicine, psychology, and public health, I'll help each family member feel heard and understood. We'll build communication skills, learn healthy conflict resolution, and create a stronger support system for everyone. Imagine a calmer, more connected family – that's what's possible with family counselling. Let's work together to help your family thrive!

Family dynamics are complicated. Each family has established patterns, such as how everyone communicates within the family system, how they deal with stressful situations and conflict, their roles in the family unit and how members seek support from one another. I offer family therapy sessions and encourage you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure I am the proper fit for your families needs.

Home is where the heart is, and the heart is often with our family. When these precious relationships become strained, it can feel like our world is being pulled apart. I believe we all struggle with cyclic generational trauma in our families, alongside the individual stresses and challenges of each family member. Using openness, caring, and equal respect for all family members, I hope to help families rediscover peace, collaboration, and love.

Sometimes family life becomes stressful when every individual is bringing their own challenges into the dynamics. Having family structure and goals can promote effective functioning within the family as a whole through working through relational or outside side issues that are bring brought into the home.

Family therapy can be an exciting adventure as we listen to each perspective, identify each person's strengths, and develop a new family vision. Counselling may include parenting styles, creative discipline, styles of communication and setting healthy boundaries. All ages may be involved in this process and use of role-playing and toy figures make sessions more fun as we learn from each other. A discussion of family of origin may help each person understand how they attach in relationships and the possibility of a healthier dynamic. Therapy is individualized for each family, to be the most effective.

A family of four walks into a bar... (okay, therapist's office, fine) each with a different reason why they're there. Also, some of them don't want to be there at all! Get it! Actually, there's no punch-line, it's just normally how it goes. Regardless of what event brings them through the door, families often come in feeling divided and disconnected. That's why my job is to find the common ground so that everyone feels like they're being respected, heard, and have something to gain from the experience. My hope is that you will leave here: 1) Feeling more unified around a common goal 2) Clarity for how to move forward together 3) A renewed sense of what matters most

Everything relates to everything else, and families in all shapes and forms are no exception. Different ages, developmental levels in children, genders and or cultures need to be considered, when we try to establish a loving, respectful. proactive and supportive family team. I do believe, that the HOW, WHAT, WHEN and WHY of communication is what makes or breaks a family .... any relationship. Allow me to help you establish reasonable goals and find manageable solutions to challenges, which will improve your family's wellbeing. 905-842-3626

It can be hard to adjust and interact with the person growing from the baby you once knew, particularly if you are motivated to help them avoid all the mistakes that you experienced in your life. For your child, it can feel impossible to be understood by you, especially when you find it hard to be understood by them. I can help you build a stronger bond through mutual respect and shared understanding by leveling the playing field that may be dominating your parent-child relationship. You might be surprised just how quickly things can change when you can engage in a well facilitated discussion that seeks to improve things, rather than trying to mold things to fit your expectations.

Do you have trouble communicating with your kids, spouse, siblings, in-laws, or parents? If you are like most of us, you probably do! Families adopt certain rules for how people are to behave within the family, and more often than not, these rules contribute to unhealthy relationships and communication patterns. It is my job to help families understand and identify their dynamics, and work towards effective and healthy communication patters.

Too often, communication stands in the way of good relationships. With families, this is compounded by a number of other issues. Through family therapy, we unpack the preconceived ideas and family roles that we often feel compelled to fall into, we work together to examine relationships. Using a combination of Solution Focused Therapy, client-led exchanges, and role-playing, together we develop new and healthy ways to communicate.

It can be hard to know where to start when trying to address conflict within the family because each member is unique and may have very different concerns and goals. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive environment to foster family healing while also honouring individual differences. My approach to family therapy is rooted in the healing power of relationships and focuses on collaboration to create shared meaning. Reach out today to learn more about my approach and your journey to healing and book a free 15-minute consultation.

I have worked with adult children and their parents, to create a safe space for them to work on the different perspectives on issues. Family Therapy gives them a respectful way to listen to the other party's voices instead of insisting on their own voice to be heard. It may need to start with better communication skills, active listening, understanding the cycle or the pattern which might have existed for a long long time. Learning how to build healthier boundaries in the family.
