Family Therapy

​

At Altus Home Counseling, we understand that families face unique challenges and may require specialized support to manage their mental health concerns. Our family therapy services are designed to provide families with the tools and strategies they need to improve their overall well-being and strengthen their relationships.

​

Family therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and building stronger relationships among family members. Family therapy can be an effective treatment option for families who may be struggling with a variety of issues, including behavioral problems in children, communication difficulties, parenting conflicts, divorce, and grief.

​

Our experienced family therapists are trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), structural family therapy, and emotionally-focused therapy. We work with families to identify the best therapeutic approach based on their specific needs, preferences, and goals.

​

We offer family therapy services for a variety of mental health concerns, including:

• Childhood behavioral problems: Children may exhibit behavioral problems such as aggression, defiance, or hyperactivity that can cause stress and strain on family relationships. Our family therapists work with families to develop strategies to manage these behaviors and improve overall functioning.

• Communication difficulties: Communication difficulties can arise in any family, leading to misunderstandings, conflict, and tension. Our therapists work with families to develop effective communication skills and resolve conflicts in a constructive manner.

• Parenting conflicts: Parenting conflicts can arise when parents have different parenting styles or values. Our therapists work with parents to develop a shared parenting plan and improve their co-parenting relationship.

• Divorce: Divorce can be a difficult time for families, leading to stress, anxiety, and uncertainty. Our therapists provide support and guidance to families going through a divorce, helping them navigate the challenges of co-parenting and adjusting to new family dynamics.

• Grief and loss: Grief and loss can impact families in many ways, leading to emotional distress and challenges in coping. Our therapists work with families to process grief and loss and develop coping strategies to manage the emotional impact.

​​

During family therapy sessions, our therapists work with families to identify patterns of behavior and communication that may be contributing to the challenges they are facing. We use evidence-based practices to help families develop the skills and strategies they need to improve their relationships and manage their mental health concerns.

​

We understand that family therapy can be a challenging process, and we provide a safe and supportive environment where families can feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment or stigma. We work closely with families to ensure that they are involved in the therapeutic process and can support each other's progress outside of therapy sessions.

At Altus Home Counseling, we are committed to providing high-quality, compassionate care to families. We believe that everyone deserves access to mental health services, and we work with families to ensure that they receive the care they need.
