Parents & Couples
Recognize and resolve the negative interactions and patterns that create distress, distance and lead to feeling stuck.
Is This For Me?
Parents and/or couples often come to therapy in a state of an unresolved conflict or crisis. Whether you are a new parent, a parent of a teen / young adult or a couple, there are unending opportunities for questions and concerns. In therapy, both parents and couples come to recognize the patterns of repeated negative interactions that create distress and distance. With new understanding and awareness, new skills can develop and improve the ability to communicate, negotiate differences and problem solve.
