Therapy for Families
virtual and in-person sessions in wilmington, nc
As a family, we have good intentions of making time for one another, communicating kindly, and creating a safe space for all members of the families to be themselves. This doesn’t always happen and you find yourself in constant arguments, feeling disconnected from one another, or worried about a specific family member.
In family therapy, we can work together to change stuck patterns of behaviors, negative communication patterns, and family roles that are no longer serving you.
Family life often becomes chaotic.

grief and loss
Grief is a deeply personal experience that can affect family members in different ways, creating feelings of isolation, anger, or confusion. Therapy offers families a compassionate space to process their emotions together, honoring the loss while fostering resilience. It helps family members communicate openly about their grief, ensuring that no one feels alone in their sorrow.
By working through grief together, families can strengthen their connections and rebuild hope for the future.

substance abuse or addiction
Substance abuse and addiction can fracture family dynamics, leaving loved ones feeling helpless, frustrated, or disconnected. Family therapy helps create a supportive environment where all members can openly discuss the impact of addiction on their relationships. It focuses on building healthy communication patterns and identifying coping strategies to help the family heal together.
By offering education on addiction and coping strategies, therapy empowers families to navigate this difficult journey together.

Disconnection and isolation within families can manifest in various ways, from emotional distance to lack of communication. Therapy provides a nurturing space where family members can reconnect by exploring the causes of these feelings, whether they stem from life transitions, unresolved conflicts, or differing expectations.
Through guided discussions, therapy fosters understanding and brings families closer together.

disconnection or isolation
Every family goes through natural adjustment periods, such as welcoming a new baby, transitioning to a new school, or moving to a different city. These changes can bring about stress and anxiety, even when they are positive. Family therapy helps members navigate these transitions by creating a space for everyone to express their concerns, frustrations, or fears.
By providing coping strategies, therapy strengthens family bonds and helps them adapt to new situations with confidence.

supporting a loved one
When a family member is going through a difficult time, whether due to mental health challenges, physical illness, or life changes, it can be hard to know how to best support them. Therapy provides families with tools to offer care and empathy while maintaining their own emotional well-being. It also helps families navigate the boundaries between supporting a loved one and maintaining a healthy family dynamic.
Therapy also provides practical tools for offering care while maintaining family balance and well-being.
Steps To Therapy
01
initial reachout
You can reach out initially by phone or email according to your preferences. You will then receive a phone call from your therapist to discuss any questions, concerns, and details about your initial appointment. During this time, feel free to ask any questions you have in regards to therapy style, location details, or payment.
02
initial appointment
During your initial appointment, you can expect to meet with the therapist to get comfortable in the space, understand the structure of the therapy, and your client rights. This initial appointment is a great time to explore long term goals and to determine if the therapeutic relationship is a good fit for you. In addition, the therapist will give you feedback on the ways in which she may be able to help support you in reaching your long term goals. This is a collaborative process between you and the therapist.
03
continued support
At the end of your initial appointment, a consistent therapy schedule will be recommended and your future appointments set up. This can include individual therapy, family therapy, parenting support, mindfulness group, therapeutic yoga, or a combination of these will be appropriate for you.

How long will therapy take?
You do not have to incorporate yoga into your plan, but it is an option to discuss with your therapist. Not all of our therapists are yoga instructors, so you may schedule with a yoga teacher if this is something you want to incorporate into your wellness program. Some of therapists are yoga practitioners and this may be something to consider when you consider the best fit therapist for you.
In general, yoga can be used as part of stress reduction program, supporting the balance of a dysregulated nervous system after trauma, or as part of mind-body wellness. Feel free to contact us to ask more about this if you are interested.
