Family Therapy In Connecticut
When one family member is struggling, it often impacts the entire family system. Communication can break down, conflict can increase, and everyone may feel unsure how to help without making things worse.

My Approach
My approach to family therapy is structured, supportive, and flexible. Sessions may involve the family together, parents and children separately, or a combination of both, depending on what best supports the family’s needs.
At times, more than one session per week may be recommended to provide appropriate support. We’ll talk through what makes the most sense for your family during a consultation.
