Empathy. Connection. Boundaries.

Every member of the family has a voice that needs to be heard, and we can help each of you feel empowered to both speak and listen. It’s not an easy process, but our therapists help your family exist and thrive both as individuals and as a whole unit.

When problems, concerns, or difficult experiences arise for one member of the family, all members are affected. Whether this be that one member of the family is experiencing a mental health concern, there are multiple families blending and reforming due to divorce, remarriage, etc., or the family is going through an adoption process, there is not one of the member untouched by these changes. Even positive changes can be difficult and result in more arguments, outbursts, or withdrawals from other members of the family. Sometimes the family just feels volatile, disconnected, and all over the place. The family doesn’t feel like a unit anymore.

Family is often the most important bond for people, so this can be extremely painful. It might feel like sitting in a chaotic storm in your home, lost and overwhelmed. It might feel like the deepest hole in your heart that leaves you feeling hollow, sad, and alone. It might feel like anger and tension boiling over into every moment of your day and every interaction. Regardless of the concerns or the emotions involved, it’s clear that you and your family need to learn a different way to be together. The therapists at Relate Family Therapy and Counseling can help you establish boundaries in order to secure that connection you desire and promote traditions that will continue to preserve these very important relationships.

Divorce

Divorce

The separation of the family impacts all of its members as a whole and as individuals. This process can be tough on everyone, but therapists at Relate provide families with a neutral third party to sort through disagreements and move forward.

Individual Mental Health Concerns

Individual Mental Health Concerns

It’s not uncommon for at least one member of a family to have their own, individual mental health concerns, and it can be challenging to explain to a family member what’s going on and how it’s affecting your relationships. We can help you address mental health concerns both as an individual and as a unit.   

Adoption

Adoption

New parents, new children, and new siblings are all going to need room to adjust to what is gained, and also space to acknowledge that something must be lost for this process to ever occur.

We can help you feel and communicate all the multitude of feelings and reactions that come with adoption.

Co-Parenting

Co-Parenting

Often the very reasons that the couple divorced are exacerbated as they attempt to work together as co-parents. However, by doing working together in therapy to get through the difficulties of a new separation or a past divorce, it is possible to move forward.

Blended Family Concerns

Blended Families

It’s hard to integrate members of different families into a new family, as it can be difficult to know how to manage the family, the various disciplinary methods and parenting styles, and the different schedules and bonds among family members. Help the whole family feel connected, supported, and heard through therapy.

Grief & Loss

Grief & Loss

Grief and loss can impact all areas of your life. Whether your loss was yesterday or years ago, a pet, a child, or a friend – we will not judge your grief. Relate Family Therapy & Counseling will help you to feel heard and understood around where you are in your process of loss and what your goals are in moving on from the hurt and pain of the loss.

Chronic/Terminal Illness

Chronic/Terminal Illness

Whether the illness takes place over months or years, it can be brutal for a family to manage the difficulties that come with chronic or terminal illnesses. You can, however, find connection, new ways to communicate, and better ways to support each other. 

Relate Family Therapy and Counseling understands the needs of families. Our spaces are designed for your comfort, whether you need a place for quiet reflection before session, a space to work while other members of your family are in session, an area for the kids to be allowed to play and make a little noise while waiting, or just space to spread out. We have adequate space for families of all sizes, structures, and passions. Additionally, we have three different waiting areas so that separation and space from other partners or family members are available when wanted.
