FAMILY THERAPY
A major change in the family can affect all family members. You or your spouse may be dealing with changes in work, schedule, or living situation. Someone in your family may have problems that affect everyone else. Your children may develop problems suddenly after a divorce, death, or other stressful event and family therapy may be recommended rather than individual therapy so that no one member of the family is identified as "the" problem.
POST DIVORCE CONSULTATIONS
After a divorce or separation most parents want to manage the transition so children benefit from the changes in the family. One or both parents are welcome to come for a consult to discuss ways to avoid fighting through the children. If parents cannot agree on a strategy that protects the children from post- divorce stress individual therapy might be suggested. Sometimes a blended family can come in for a family session.
