We are one of 12% of counselors specifically trained in marriage and family therapy.

Only marriage and family therapy as a profession requires any coursework or supervised
clinical training in marital and family counseling.

Marriage and family therapy offers new hope as communication is re-established,
tensions subside and problems are addressed in a safe and supportive environment.

Family Therapy offers:

• sound, common sense principles you can use.
• a refocusing of the family on strengths instead of problems.
• establishment of healthy boundaries that make sense.
• new ways to communicate more effectively.
• each person a voice in terms of what is happening.
• active counselor feedback and encouragement.

Family therapy is a positive way of getting off the treadmill, stepping back and
strategizing about new ways to approach family problems. Knowing what you want means
you can stay on course even when resistance to change is present.

A common misconception is that the person causing stress needs to be in family counseling
in order for change to occur. That is not necessarily true. Any person wanting change
and motivated to seek counseling can have a direct effect on other family members
- even those not present.
