FAMILY THERAPY & CONSULTING SERVICES

When one person in a family system is struggling, everyone feels it.

The hardest thing a family system can do is adapt. Whether in a crisis, a transition, or just navigating the challenges of a modern, busy world, we offer assertive guidance to move forward together.

Get your family out of the cycle and back into connection.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic conflict, parenting burnout, family crisis, or a teen in distress, our work goes beyond behavioral change- we help families interrupt reactive patterns, build secure connections, and function from a place of clarity and strength.

We also offer family consulting for those needing strategic, professional support outside the bounds of traditional therapy. If your family is navigating a high-stakes transition, complex dynamics, or a situation that needs expert input and planning-we’re here to help.

WHAT WE TREAT

  • TEEN & YOUNG ADULT CHALLENGES

    From typical teen rebelliousness, to oppositional behaviors or school refusal, all the way through college, career stress, failure to launch or identity issues- we help family systems move through these moments in connected and effective ways to support healthy boundaries & interdependence.

  • PARENT-CHILD DISCONNECTION

    When your kid pulls away, acts out, or shuts down, it’s easy to feel helpless. We support you in rebuilding trust, creating emotional safety, and improving communication. Relationships are a two-way street, and we’ll provide assertive guidance to repair damaged communication patterns.

  • PARENTING IN TRANSITION

    Whether you’re navigating a divorce, blended family dynamics, retirement, grief, financial stress, moving, or any sudden change- we offer grounded support and planning to help your family stay stable through the chaos. We will provide space to be grounded yet flexible and adapt the family dynamic.

  • HIGH-CONFLICT HOMES

    Families who operate in chronic reactivity often need more than traditional therapy. We help you de-escalate, reset expectations, and move from constant rupture into repair. We can help map out conflict and distress cycles that keep you having the same fights over and over and keep conflict healthy instead of toxic or explosive. We can also help manage the trauma and stress that children often carry when parents in a family go through periods of high conflict.

  • FAMILY CRISIS MANAGEMENT

    Families facing major crises- whether trying to help a family member’s substance abuse issues, mental health crises, managing a betrayal or trauma, or managing a public-facing event- we can help keep a stable center and manage actions plans while assisting the family unit in taking care of the relational damage and repair.

HOW WE TREAT

  • IN PERSON: Our office in Woodbury hosts families for therapeutic services from our home base. Our office is designed to create a break from the outside noise and cluttered schedule so you can focus on growth. 

  • REMOTE: Family therapy is available remotely in Connecticut, Colorado, and Massachusetts. We go beyond the typical unfulfilling online sessions, with flexible scheduling, personalized support, longer appointment times. We offer family consulting & crisis management remotely in any state or overseas.

  • CONCIERGE: Concierge simply means whatever is needed, wherever needed, however needed. Services can include more significant support remotely, via text, consulting, travel, custom  intensives or wraparound services- uniquely crafted therapeutic interventions that come to you where and when you need them.

FAMILY THERAPY

Relational, trauma-informed, and emotionally focused. We work with the whole system- teens, parents, adult children, siblings- to shift stuck patterns and bring more harmony and resilience into the family.

Families often stay stuck in patterns that have been passed down from generations before, even when they no longer serve the success and dynamic of the family. Family therapy provides an assertive guide who can assess your family’s functioning and reframe unhealthy or unhelpful patterns of communication.

The power of an experienced family therapist lies in guiding each member to speak their emotional experience instead of hiding or distracting, and teaching the family system how to adapt instead of remain the same.

  • Whole-family sessions

  • Parent-only coaching

  • Teen-focused therapy

  • Sibling relational support

  • Somatic & attachment-based tools

  • High-conflict system repair

FAMILY CRISIS MANAGEMENT

Some families find themselves in moments that feel too big, too public, or too high-stakes to navigate alone. Whether you're dealing with a public-facing family crisis, a severe mental health event, substance use spiral, or fractured relationships following betrayal or trauma- this isn't something a weekly therapy session can fix. You need clear leadership, a calm center, and a plan.

We help families in acute crisis find their footing again. We support you in making strategic, values-aligned decisions while tending to the emotional impact across the system. That means addressing the logistics and the relationships- at the same time.

From interventions and family stabilization to reputation management and preparing for treatment or reintegration- we offer expert containment, clarity, and support during the moments that matter most.

Whether you're in the eye of the storm or bracing for it, we’ll help you move forward with dignity, cohesion, and purpose

FAMILY CONSULTING

Strategic, goal-driven, and deeply personalized. For families navigating a complex situation that needs structure, insight, or a clear plan. Perfect for those with high demand careers, complex issues, or who need a single point person, family consulting is a game changer. A family consultant uses their depth of professional experience and expertise to assess, advise, and facilitate each member of the family connecting with the services they need to thrive.

An experienced family consultant can provide knowledge, organization, direction, precise execution, streamlined communication, and a wealth of knowledge to families with complex needs. A family consultant can be a one stop shop that takes the stress and mental load of service planning for your family off your plate and leaves you with time to connect and the energy to thrive.
