Occasional conflict is common in even a very close-knit family. Conflict can arise from misunderstandings and miscommunications or anytime family members have differing views. While small disagreements are a given in any family, constant conflict can have lasting negative consequences. Serious conflicts can arise from a variety of different sources including substance abuse, financial problems, mental illness, marital problems, the birth of a child, child rearing, parent and child problems, a job change or a big move. If your family is facing a situation that is causing stress or anger, family therapy can be very valuable and, ultimately, bring you closer together. A mental health professional specializing in family therapy can also help to find peaceful solutions to conflicts.

Families can be complex. We’re taught that families should be a source of unconditional support, but what if they aren’t? It can be hard to give up hope that they’ll ever be who you need them to be. You might feel like you’ve exhausted all options and don’t know where to go from here with members of your family. You might feel guilt around the way things have worked out. Therapy can help you decide what to do with the feelings you feel and find ways to move forward that are right for you.

Family therapy will focus on the whole system; concentrating on the relationships between individual family members, their roles and situations, including context, rules, boundaries and communication. Many times parenting information does not address the specific needs of your individual children and your unique family dynamic. Our sessions can help you tailor your parenting to the needs of your individual children and set you and your family on a positive road towards healing and understanding

Working with family conflict is at the core of my training and my personal experience. Our families bring up behaviors and feelings in ways that other relationships don't, and it can be especially confusing to sort out needs, capacities, and how the past is impacting the present. I've successfully worked with families on addressing harmful dynamics, blending lives, separation, and navigating parenting challenges, and improving relationships between teens and their parents.

I see conflict within families as a natural impulse toward eventual health that can get stuck in patterns of pain and blame. With attuned facilitation, strife that may reach back generations can point toward the healing and connection which is the birthright of every family. I emphasize the formation of healthy boundaries and clear communication to support you to build a family culture of health.

Family dynamics in the best of circumstances can be challenging but when there are external stressors, like a divorce, or someone has substance use issues, conflict can be exacerbated. I support clients using a variety of tools, including Parts Therapy (IFS), CBT, DBT, polyvagal theory to enable them to examine their role in their family, work within the family system (if safe) and to honor their own unique experience of the home and relationships within that home.

Families are complex, bearing all kinds of histories, as well as habits of living, communicating, and connecting. Not only this, but they must also grow and change together over time, as everyone involved is always in the process of "growing up". It's important to take the time to slow down, explore what different elements have made the family the way that it is, feel the feelings, and determine preferred ways of being together through life's changes.

When addressing family conflict, it can be helpful to get most or all family members for a session to work toward a common goal. Because each family member is impacted by family events, each member can contribute unique ideas about how to address the challenges. In your first session, your counselor will assess your particular family situation and then formulate a plan to meet the goals.

Our family therapists have gone through specific training on working with families as a whole, not just individuals. Any changes or mental health issues in one person in a family affect the entire family. People don't exist in a vacuum! For that reason, family therapists focus on helping your entire family work through conflict around issues such as divorce, blending families, or reunification.

Finding the origins of behavior are helpful to changing it. In my work with families, I begin with helping them enhance their understanding of one another's frame of reference, which allows for greater empathy when working through conflict. By establishing the meaning behind certain behaviors, strategies can be implemented to better align with the values families want to abide by.
