Family Counseling:
Our counselors have been trained in Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy and have completed specific course work related to systems theory and family dynamics. From this training comes our belief that the family context is an important factor in healing and wellness. We involve family members in counseling whenever possible and seek to use playful, experiential exercises to create moments of connection, healing, and growth.
