Family therapy services in 30565: Nicholson, GA. Relationship and couples counseling.

Working with me, families learn better communication skills and new ways of interacting that interrupt negative cycles of behavior that they have fallen into. The goal is for each member of the family to feel heard and valued equally yet acknowledging the multiple unique roles each person plays (mother/wife/lover/employee, son/brother/student).

Family relations can sometimes become challenging to manoeuvre and can cause discord in family relations. Some topics can be very sensitive to address, can be highly triggering, reopen old wounds and bring back traumatic memories. This is why having the right support system in a controlled environment is very important. Part of healing and recovery requires honesty, vulnerability and transparency. I do a one on one sessions first with each party and then we come together in a group to help mediate with effective, clear, respectful, communication. If you are ready to help your family heal in a safe space, contact me today!

Just as a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, every individual will only be as successful as the weakest part of their life. In this way, the relationship health within the family plays a key role in the happiness and success of each individual. Family therapy benefits each individual by improving interactions and relationships for everyone. This can be especially useful when facing depression, substance abuse, divorce, grief, chronic illness and even food issues or everyday issues such as communication, conflict or behavioral problems. Some emotional pain is as much a part of the family as a whole as it is to the individual and thus is best addressed in family therapy.

I have many parents that bring their child to me and in essence say "please fix my child". It usually involves the entire family working together to fix the problem that is showing, which is typically through the child. The child is really saying "please help me and my family" with their behavior. Family Systems Theory supports this belief and I have seen it work with people that are willing to make positive changes dozens and maybe even hundreds of times.
