Family therapy services in 14569: Warsaw, NY. Relationship and couples counseling.

Often time a family loses cohesiveness due to life stressors, difference of life goals and age related stages each member is going through. Even though it may seem like one member is the main "problem" it effects all members and takes cooperative effort to improve communication and improve the family's quality of life. Let me assist you in achieving this goal.

Families can be complicated. You may be struggling with a particular issue and not know how to approach it with your partner or your family. Perhaps your child is having a difficult time or has gone through a traumatic event and you want to be supportive but aren't sure what to do to help. Maybe you and your loved ones are just having a hard time talking to each other and getting along. Family therapy can help. I provide a comfortable and secure place to discuss your concerns, feelings and goals. I help families gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the issues, and work collaboratively with them to build effective communication skills, reduce conflict and promote growth.

My background is in MST or multi systemic Family Therapy. I believe the family system is vital to the mental and emotional well- being of each person in the family. All people in family work must have similar goals. I do sessions with individuals and families within the unit to better support the family unit to assist in fostering a more positive relationship, to preserve the family system. Focused on parent and pre- teen, teen, interaction or (co) parenting to better support the family dynamic in concert with working one pre /teen or adult child communication to increase a more positive relationship .

Families often times will need positive guidance and emotional support to improve relationships and resolve conflict. Through family therapy I can help you to learn how to better communicate your feelings and expectations to each other, as well as better understand yourself and your family members. We can also resolve negative feelings and manage problem behaviors within the family.

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.
