Family Counseling:

A healthy and stable family culture can have many positive impacts, such as individuals feelings of connection, love, security. These three feelings have drastic impacts on how we develop emotionally and intellectually. However, creating and maintaining a healthy and stable family culture is difficult, especially when considering individual differences, outside stressors, and life changes.

Family counseling is a unique form of therapy that can assist the family unit in identifying individual differences, increasing positive interactions, communicating effectively, and coming together.

Some of the reasons that individuals or families seek counseling:

Blending families
Disconnection between individual family members
Individuals isolating or socially withdrawing from the family
Addiction concerns within the family
Feelings of growing apart or holding grudges

Play Therapy:

Also referred to as "Revive", our play therapy program is designed for children between the ages of 3 and 10. This evidence-based program strives to restore joy and peace to children and families through a method that works with the child’s natural way of communication.

Children continue to develop their language skills and struggle with using words to communicate needs and feelings. Given the opportunity, children will play out their feelings and needs in a manner of expression similar to adults.

Whether the child is feeling fearful, unsatisfied, angry, or happy, play therapy is able to communicate these feelings and effectively restore connection between the caregiver and child.
