10 Reasons Why Play Therapy is Great for Kids
Your Family Deserves to be Happy & Healthy
Family relationships are the most important relationships we have. Yet, they are the most complex and not always easy to navigate.
Since families come in all shapes and sizes, our family therapy approaches are customized to meet the needs and goals of your family. Our expert family therapists utilize systemic, strength- based, and goal oriented approaches to support families in reaching their goals and dreams.
Family therapy is unique, because it enables therapists to assess various problems at a systemic and interactional level. Rather than diagnosing or treating an individual who presents with a problem, family therapists take time to explore the context surrounding the presenting complaint as well as each family member’s relationship to it. This allows therapists to collaborate with the family and co-construct effective solutions.
Because each family is incredibly unique, therapists must explore their relational dynamics, longstanding patterns, belief systems, rituals, and other factors that may be contributing to the development and persistence of problems. Although family members may have the purest of intentions, their attempts to solve problems can easily become part of the system that maintains the problem.

What to Expect with Family Therapy in Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs, & Plantation, FL...
Family therapy creates a safe space where multiple voices, points of view, experiences, hopes, and dreams can be shared between family members.
The role of a family therapist is to facilitate the flow of communication by asking questions and empowering the family to work toward shared goals and aspirations.
We look for strengths, resources, past successes, and exceptions where the problem may have had less of an influence on the family. We will ask questions about what works for the family, what areas need to be strengthened within the family, and what each member would like to see change about the family.
