Family Counseling Services
Achieving greater family harmony is only attainable by determining a better way of relating to one another. When walls of resentment are erected and certain touchy subjects are never discussed, then the family begins to drift apart, oftentimes without knowing what has hit them. Family counseling fights against this brewing storm by enabling the various family members to interact with honesty and acceptance and to lessen family habits that cause pain and unhealthy behaviors.
Families often come for counseling when they have difficulty resolving an issue. There is that elephant in the room that is just not going away on its own. There has to be work involved in listening to each side of the story and really hearing what is going on from all angles. When there is tension in one or more relationships, then such emotions are controlling the daily interactions among family members.
Improve Communication, Improve Your Family Life
There are also certain life transitions, such as birth, death, marriage, divorce, relocation and retirement, that can deeply impact the whole family. Some transitions are anticipated while others come as a shock. These transitional points in life can either strengthen a family or tear it apart, and it takes a healthy level of communication to process such change in a healthy way.
Parenting and step-parenting are a common focus of counseling, as well, because leading a family through perilous circumstances is never easy and it’s not the same for everyone. A counselor might work with an entire family group or some combination of its members. At Stonebriar Counseling Associates, we understand that every family is different, and we strive to treat every family with a unique approach!
