Teletherapy for Grand Rapids, MI

Many families come to therapy feeling like they have tried everything and are lost as to helping their child manage their emotions and behaviors. This is especially true for caregivers of children who have been adopted or in the child welfare system. I work with caregivers to understand their children's behaviors through a developmentally appropriate framework and discuss tangible ways to create positive change in family dynamics. Together, I work with children and caregivers to increase secure attachment, bonding, and mutual enjoyment.

Couples with young kiddo are particularly at risk for marriage and family strife because they are so busy, and because there is so much that is new to their brains, emotions and relationship. Figuring out how to be both mom and dad as well as husband and wife is often overwhelming and troubling. Tension builds when the relationship energy gets split between kiddos needs (and there are a lot of them!) and marriage needs (and those are valid as well). The energy to figure out how to integrate all those needs, wants, wishes becomes divided and divisive. Disconnected and discontent brew and relationship trouble stews. What to do?
