What Family Therapy Looks Like
Sessions provide a safe, structured space to reflect on family patterns and identify what contributes to conflict or distance. The first session focuses on understanding your family’s challenges and goals. Ongoing sessions provide practical strategies to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen emotional connection. The focus is on both what is working in your family and what could shift to support healthier interactions.
