Family Therapy & Consulting

Expert Guidance for Complex Dynamics

Support for Families Under Strain

When families feel stuck, overwhelmed, or locked in constant reactivity, it’s rarely about one person. It’s about patterns that have taken hold of the system.

Our work goes beyond surface behavior change. We help families interrupt reactive cycles, rebuild emotional safety, and restore clarity so the family system can function with strength, flexibility, and connection—even during periods of crisis or transition. We help create the conditions for honest, emotionally corrective conversations that many families have never had before.

In addition to family therapy, we offer family consulting and crisis-focused support for situations that require structure, strategy, and professional leadership beyond traditional weekly sessions. Whether a family is navigating high-conflict dynamics, acute stress, or a high-stakes transition, we provide steady guidance that addresses both the relational impact and the practical realities at the same time.

Whether you're navigating parenting burnout, teen distress, chronic conflict, or a major life transition, we provide grounded, assertive guidance to help your family move forward together.

Relational, trauma-informed support for the systems that shape your life.

Who Family Therapy Is For

Family therapy supports parents, children, teens, and adult family members who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or caught in patterns that no longer serve the health of the system.

  • Families navigating chronic conflict or emotional distance

  • Parents experiencing burnout or confusion about how to help

  • Teens or young adults in distress, transition, or shutdown

  • Families impacted by neurodivergence, addiction, or mental health crises

  • Systems strained by divorce, loss, relocation, or major change

Key Benefits

Clarity, Instead of Reactivity

Understand what’s truly driving tension or disconnection so your family can stop reacting and start responding with intention.

Relief That’s Felt, Not Forced

Reduce reactivity, reset communication, and experience your family as a place of support rather than constant stress.

Resilience & Connection

Build emotionally attuned relationships that adapt to challenges rather than breaking under pressure.

What We Address in Family Therapy

Teen & Young Adult Challenges

From school refusal and oppositional behavior to college stress, identity struggles, or delayed independence, we help families support growth without losing connection. Our work balances healthy boundaries with emotional attunement.

Parent–Child Disconnection

When children shut down, act out, or pull away, parents often feel helpless or blamed. We help rebuild trust, restore emotional safety, and repair communication so relationships can reconnect instead of fracture.

Parenting in Transition

Divorce, blended families, grief, relocation, financial stress, or sudden life changes can destabilize even strong families. We offer grounded support and planning so families can adapt without losing cohesion.

High-Conflict & Crisis Situations

Chronic reactivity, substance use crises, severe mental health events, betrayal, or public-facing stress require more than traditional therapy. We help families establish stability, clear plans, and relational repair during high-stakes moments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work with the whole family or just parents?

We tailor the format to your family’s needs. This may include whole-family sessions, parent-only work, or focused support for teens or young adults.

What if our family is currently in crisis?

We offer structured crisis support and family stabilization when situations are urgent, complex, or high-stakes.

Can family therapy be done remotely?

Yes. Family therapy is available remotely in Connecticut, Colorado, and Massachusetts. Consulting and crisis support can be provided nationally or internationally.

How is this different from traditional family therapy?

Our work is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and system-focused. We address patterns beneath behavior, not just surface communication issues.

Do you offer concierge or intensive options for families?

Yes. When families need deeper or more flexible support, concierge formats allow for extended sessions, in-home work, or wraparound care

What if one (or more) family members won’t participate?

This does happen from time to time; we ask that all who are willing show up and participate, and that hopefully the other necessary members of the family will eventually join us once they feel safe, open, and willing.
