Family therapy services in 80503: Longmont, CO. Relationship and couples counseling.

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.

Families are extremely complex. There are numerous dynamics to consider and be mindful of, and it can be overwhelming trying to face or sort through some of those dynamics in the pursuit of healthier relationships.

There are many approaches families can follow to begin rebuilding relationships and smoothing over the rough edges. As each relationship gets stronger, the family unit gains intimacy and grows exponentially.

True Happiness and Stability Stems from the Quality of our Significant Relationships! I provide therapy for children, adolescents, individuals, elders, couples, and families.

I established Evergreen Family Matters to treat behavioral and emotional problems within the context of the family structure or system. I work with families and couples in intimate relationships to facilitate and nurture change and development. The issues of an individual family member are often a reflection of some conflict within the family system as a whole. To understand this better, consider the example of a mobile. When you move any one piece of a mobile, all the other pieces move too. They do not exist in isolation from one another, and "movement" in any one part of the "system" will affect all the rest of the parts of the system. Individuals cannot be understood in isolation from one another -- families are a system of interconnected and...(view profile to read more)

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.

Parenting is hard. Co-parenting can be even harder. Families can be very messy and frustrating, but they don't have to be. Do you have a child that is out of control or experiencing distress at home or school? I love to work with families who are experiencing conflict. Whether you are part of a blended, divorced, traditional, non-traditional, or LGBTQ+ family, I love helping families narrow in on their goals and find practical steps to achieving them.
