Family dynamics and patterns are complicated. Sometimes you need someone to help you talk to one another.

Who wants to sit through another holiday, phone call, dinner, argument, and do the same awkward dance over and over. You are here because you can’t tolerate the repetition any longer.

You want to feel loved and feel loving toward your family member, more than you do. You want to iron out the arguments you keep having, the ways which you feel overlooked, worried about one another, and you need help to say the things that are unspoken.

If you are a parent coming in with an adult child, you will hear some of the ways in which you impacted your child. This doesn’t mean you were not a good, kind, loving parent. In all relationships it’s hard to hear how we have impacted someone. If you are an adult child, you might have to hear how your behavior has affected your parent, and you might need to learn more about their life. But you do not have to take care of them in the session. That’s my job.
