Family therapy services in 75418: Bonham, TX. Relationship and couples counseling.

Families who come in for counseling as a family are given a chance to work through issues in a safe environment-- where trust, respect, and honor are learned, given, and received--because the family is intentional about learning new strategies. Families learn that it is counterproductive to have an "identified patient" in the family, where one family member is "tagged" to be the only one acting out and causing family distress. Biblical and Family Systems principles may be applied to have the whole family become engaged in the positive change and nurturing process.

In family therapy those who have problems individually or relationally may be powerfully helped by the assistance of family members. Unfortunately the power of the family has often been abused and thus problems have been made worse. In my role as a family therapist I help family members understand their own family dynamics.Through the use of role play,teaching and modeling I assist families in how they can best get organized to restore either individuals or relationships back to a place of love and trust. I teach about communication, forgiveness and conflict resolution.I provide plenty of encouragement and creative ideas to bridge gaps in relationships in the interest of restoring love.
