Family therapy services in 80403: Golden, CO. Relationship and couples counseling.

Feel your family is dysfunctional? Most families are. I will provide a space in which everyone is heard and respected. I will look at the whole family as a unit and help you develop new strategies for interactions as a family. I will also look at how each memeber of the family relates to the other members and help you develop new ways of responding and communicating. No member of the family will be left out as we build a stronger family unit.

In family therapy, I draw on the work of both Virginia Satir and Michael White to create a collaborative space where each family member feels valued. Inspired by Satir’s emphasis on connection and authenticity, we explore family dynamics without placing blame on any one person, seeking instead to understand how certain patterns have taken shape. Using White’s narrative approach, we also look at the stories each person holds about their role within the family, inviting re-authoring conversations that foster empathy, resilience, and a sense of belonging. Together, we build on shared values to create a supportive, growth-oriented environment for all.

I can help your family feel more connected and stable. Everyone has their own story that effects everyone else they live with. Whether you are partners, new parents, a long standing family with new issues, or a blended family, I have a play therapy office to include young children in family therapy so that we can hear their voice in the family as well. I will listen to what is happening and help you to find new solutions.

No matter your family structure, family is one of the most influential aspects of our lives. I believe that our experiences with our family helps define who we are and how we exist in the world. My goal as a therapist to help each family member learn more about themselves, their other family members, and the family as a whole in order to reestablish healthy boundaries, increase connection, and increase understanding.

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.

Whenever there is distress with one member of a family, it affects every single other person in that family. The most effective way to address issues within a family is to work with each of the family members individually, then bring the family together as a whole. This works to heal past hurts and optimize communication. Your family can come together as a healthy, happy group. Contact me to determine if family counseling is right for you.

Often one member of a family carries and acts out the hidden issues that lie beneath the surface of family life. Children often unconsciously inherit the unresolved problems that have not adequately been dealt with by their parents. Blended families make the situation even harder to understand. I can help you diagnose and deal with the issues behind the difficult behaviors that you see in one or more of your family members. Families are strongest when people can count on each other to be there for one another and open discussions lead to health behavior changes.

Family can be our main source of comfort and safety. It can also be a source of conflict, and difficulty. We spend the most time with our family, so if there's ongoing conflict, life at home can be tough. Family therapy is about getting to see the underlying needs in each other, and meeting those needs so that we can let go of the conflict and move forward. As humans, we all have the same needs and emotions, so they work as a universal language. I will help you get to the root of family conflict so you can all get your needs met and move forward.

In family therapy I use drumming to help parents, kids and teens to create positive connections. It helps them to learn to listen, connect and look at the possibilities that are open to them as a family. It's playful and fun, yet meaningful in that they are connecting and coming up with new ideas, and possibilities for positive change. With this method, kids feel connected with their family and together they have an opportunity to create, play, have fun and at the same time, grow in family bonding.
