Life is often not easy. Stress, anxiety and depression are part of many people’s lives. Psychotherapy can help. People regulate difficult emotions through relationships. The process of sharing meaning with another person and feeling understood can be curative. Further, learning how to calm one’s body when overwhelmed with anxiety, and how to correct self deprecating comments can help one feel more able to face the hardships of everyday life and improve self esteem.

Adolescence is a time often fraught with tension. The task of this developmental stage is to separate from the family of origin in order to develop an independent identity. This process involves forming closer relationships to peer groups. At the same time, adolescents still need (and want) parental guidance and support. This inherent conflict can make this time difficult for adolescents and their parents. Therapy can help. Having an adult to talk to who is not their parent can be valuable to adolescents. Parents can benefit from learning about normal adolescent behavior and appropriate strategies for limit setting and negotiation. Additionally, an impartial mediator can help communication within the family system.

Children use play to master anxiety provoking tasks such as doctor’s visits or their first day of school. Therapy with a child is therefore practiced by joining the child’s play and helping him or her find ways to successfully negotiate these difficult tasks. Parent involvement is a necessary part of this process. Understanding your child’s emotional needs and learning ways to manage their behavior and difficult feelings will help you create a nurturing environment in which your child can thrive. School consultation with teachers and guidance counselors will help to affect change across settings.

Learn how to improve your parenting skills and thereby your child’s functioning. Understand reasons for your child’s difficult behavior. Use your coping skills as a resource for your child. Foster the relationship with your child to help him or her manage emotions in more adaptive ways. Learn behavior modification techniques to break maladaptive behavior patterns

Parent-child therapy helps to improve your relationship by strengthening communication and attachment between you and your child. It also helps to improve your knowledge about child development. It is important for parents to understand their own unresolved issues from their childhood, to free them up to be the type of parents they want to be. Through these sessions you will begin to understand the meaning of play and relearn how to play yourself. Interacting with your child on his or her level will help to foster his or her optimal development and give you more enjoyment in your time together.

The family is a system of individuals that must function together as a unit. There can be tension between the needs of the system and the needs of the separate members. Therapy can improve communication and cohesion among the individuals within the family. It can help ameliorate the different functions that each member plays within the system, and clarify ways to improve functioning overall.

In a supportive and confidential setting, individuals come together to explore common challenges, share insights, and foster personal growth.
