Parenting and Family Therapy

There is no perfect parent and there is no perfect child, but somehow and for some reason, you are brought together. The journey of parenthood can be extremely difficult and challenging and there is no rule book for how to meet the needs of your child and family. Using a holistic approach, we can come up with strategies and resources that address your child’s specific needs. As appropriate, we work collaboratively with educational staff, medical providers, and other resources to best support your family.

 

Individual Therapy

We provide individual psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults with tailored therapeutic techniques to best support the individual. We believe collaboration is essential in order to provide integrated and holistic care. Our approach is psychodynamic, attachment-based, and developmentally informed.

 

Child-Parent Psychotherapy

Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) is a well-documented and highly successful family intervention for young children (0-5 years old) who have experienced a traumatic event and, as a result, are experiencing mental health, attachment, and/or behavioral problems. This evidence-based model works with the child and caregiver to restore the child’s sense of safety and attachment while improving cognitive, behavioral, and social functioning.

Executive Functioning

Executive functioning challenges can be symptoms of many different diagnoses. The 12 executive functions include organization, planning, time management, working memory, task initiation and persistence, response inhibition, affect regulation, meta-cognition, response inhibition, goal directed persistence, sustained attention, and social cognition. While these areas may not come organically to you or your child, they can be cultivated in therapy.

 

Relationship Counseling

We offer a safe and supportive space for couples and individuals to explore and improve their relationships. From communication issues to trust and intimacy concerns, our experienced therapists are here to support you progress towards healthier and happier connections. Through a combination of talk therapy, active listening, and evidence-based techniques, we can help you gain insight into your relationship dynamics, identify patterns that may be causing conflict or dissatisfaction, and develop effective strategies for resolving issues and fostering a deeper connection.
