Family Therapy

Real Support for the Reality of Family Life.

When a family is struggling, the tension affects everything. The constant arguments, the icy silences, and the feeling of walking on eggshells can leave everyone feeling exhausted, misunderstood, and isolated. We are dedicated to providing authentic, grounded support for families who feel stuck in painful loops, especially those navigating the unique complexities of raising teens and young adults, or supporting a loved one living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) or substance use issues.

We can help with:

Parenting Teens & Young Adults

The transition from "child" to "adult" changes the rules of the relationship. We help you navigate this shift, balancing the need for independence with the need for connection, so you can stop power struggles and start understanding each other again.
High-Conflict Cycles

If your home feels like a battleground or a library of silent treatments, we can help. We identify the negative feedback loops that keep you stuck in argument mode and teach you how to de-escalate tension so you can actually hear what the other person is saying.
BPD & Substance Use Recovery

Loving someone with Borderline Personality Disorder or a substance use disorder can feel like walking on eggshells. We provide a safe space to set healthy boundaries, learn about the diagnosis, and reduce chaos, helping the whole family move from reactive to supportive.
Family Transitions

Divorce, blending families, or launching a child off to college, big changes shake the foundation. We help you find your footing during these shifts, creating a "new normal" that honors everyone’s needs and keeps the family unit intact.
Repairing Trust

Whether it’s due to past hurts, secrets, or a rupture in the relationship, rebuilding trust takes time. We guide you through the process of repair, facilitating honest conversations that allow old wounds to heal so you can move forward without resentment.

WHY WORK WITH OUR TEAM

A Steady Team for When Things Feel Shaky.

Bringing your family to therapy is a brave step. We understand the vulnerability it takes to invite a stranger into your home life—parents often worry about being blamed, while teens often worry about being ganged up on. Our team is made up of real people who understand that family dynamics are messy and that no one acts their best when they are hurting. We don’t sit in judgment of your struggles; we sit with you in the fire. We offer a neutral, steady presence that ensures every voice is heard, creating a space where you can finally stop fighting and start understanding.

We don’t just look at the "identified patient"; we look at the whole picture. Our team specializes in the unique mechanics of family relationships across the lifespan. From helping parents navigate the rocky transition to having young adult children, to supporting families impacted by substance use or high-conflict diagnoses, we have specialists who can handle the intensity without getting overwhelmed.

Family therapy requires more than just listening, it requires a roadmap. We use active, evidence-based approaches, including DBT skills for families, mentalization-based Therapy, and attachment work, to help you de-escalate conflict in real-time. We don’t just watch you argue; we interrupt the pattern, providing the structure and feedback necessary to build a new way of relating.
