Do you feel like you don’t really know your child or teen anymore? Is your child or teen acting differently than they used to? Do you feel like something is going on inside of them but they won’t open up to you? Are they acting out in ways that are disruptive at school, home or in life in general? If your attempts to get through to them leave you feeling more and more frustrated and lost, sometimes bringing in a caring professional can help. Getting your child or teen the help they need is the most loving thing to do. Whatever the reason you are considering counseling for your child, teen or family, I believe I can help.

It’s time for you to have a down to earth psychotherapist that feels just like an old friend. You don't have to go about it alone. People have been feeling it, and stronger than ever before - anxiety, burnout, depression, past-traumas, change, loss, grief. Maybe you’re a young professional or maybe you’re well into your career, even retired, and ready to finally start working on (deep breath!) you. I am an experienced therapist but I come to you as an equal. You can be yourself with me and I will accept you exactly as you are. Swearing and sharing of honest thoughts permitted ;)

When you start to see changes in your child, whether that may be restrictive eating behaviours (e.g., cutting out sweets, eating smaller portions), compulsive behaviours (e.g., handwashing), social withdrawal, or avoidance of things they enjoy, it can be hard to know what to do. Many parents start to worry that their child may have anxiety, depression, ocd, or an eating disorder and want to find support.

Family Therapy Counsellors

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
