Family/Relational

Some define family with bloodlines and family trees, others consider their closest friends family. No matter the shape, size, or content the truth is: we all have them. At best, family members support and encourage each other. At worst? Let's save that for the therapy room...

Relational therapy is great for a variety of situations. Sessions may include: parent(s) and child(ren); siblings; grandparents and parents; biological and adopted parents; caregivers; co-workers; and/or close friends. These sessions can help when we desire more from our network. Improving and maintaining positive relationships is one way to increase the size and strength of our support systems. Just as there are many different types of families, there are a myriad of ways to form a family session. We will work to improve the whole system by respecting each member and working with everyone's qualities. Configuration and topics may include:

• adoption

• death/illness

• sibling rivalry

• divorce

• adult-child and parent relationships

• caring for elderly parents

• multigenerational households

• co-workers
