When one person in a family is struggling, everyone feels it. Family therapy and parent coaching help you communicate better, work as a team, and support your child at home.
Family therapy is not about blame. It is about helping everyone understand each other and find ways forward together.
Arguments, tension or power struggles that keep repeating.
Divorce, a new blended family, a move, or a new baby.
Supporting each other after the death of a loved one or another loss.
Helping the whole family recover and feel safe again.
Finding consistent, calm ways to respond to difficult behavior.
Wanting to feel closer and spend time together without conflict.
Sessions may include the whole family, parents only, or a parent and child together, depending on your goals.
Tell us what is going on and ask any questions.
We learn about each person's view of what is happening and what they hope will change.
Sessions focus on communication, problem-solving and routines you can use at home.
We check progress regularly and adjust goals as your family grows.
Parent coaching gives you time with a counselor without your child in the room. Together you work on practical strategies for behavior, routines, emotions and communication.
Parent coaching can be on its own or alongside your child's therapy, so what happens in sessions carries over at home.
• Responding calmly to tantrums and outbursts.
• Setting limits and routines that stick.
• Talking with your child about hard topics like divorce, loss or scary events.
Parents and caregivers are involved in treatment, because children do best when the adults around them are supported too.

We work with several insurance plans, including Medicaid. See our Fees page for details.
