Families are complex, dynamic systems, and even the most loving ones can face challenges that disrupt their harmony. When one member struggles, it often impacts everyone, creating ripple effects of stress, misunderstanding, or distance. At Everbloom Counseling, we believe in the power of family to heal and grow together. Our family therapy services provide a supportive space to navigate these complexities, strengthen bonds, and create a more resilient and connected family unit.
Is your family experiencing:
Frequent arguments or conflicts that seem to go nowhere?
Communication breakdowns, where no one feels heard?
Stress related to significant life transitions (divorce, remarriage, a new baby)?
Challenges with parenting or child behavior?
The impact of mental health struggles on a family member (anxiety, depression, addiction)?
Sibling rivalry or unresolved sibling issues?
Difficulty setting healthy boundaries?
A sense of disconnection or emotional distance?
The aftermath of a traumatic event or loss?
If your family is grappling with any of these, family therapy can offer a path forward. Rather than focusing on one "problem" individual, we work with the entire family system to identify patterns, improve interactions, and build collective strength.
At Everbloom, we are dedicated to facilitating open communication and fostering deeper understanding within your family. My approach to family therapy is deeply informed by my training as a Level 1 Trained ABFT (Attachment-Based Family Therapy) therapist. ABFT is an evidence-based model specifically designed to help families, particularly those with adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, or suicidal ideation, to repair trust and re-establish secure, supportive relationships.
In our sessions, drawing on principles of ABFT and other effective modalities, we will work collaboratively to:
Improve Communication: Learn to express needs and feelings clearly and respectfully, and actively listen to one another.
Resolve Conflicts: Develop effective strategies for navigating disagreements and finding common ground.
Strengthen Bonds: Reconnect on a deeper emotional level, fostering empathy and mutual support, with a focus on repairing any emotional ruptures.
Understand Family Dynamics: Identify unhelpful patterns of interaction and create new, healthier ways of relating.
Navigate Transitions: Receive guidance and support through challenging life changes.
Set Healthy Boundaries: Establish clear expectations and roles that promote respect and individual well-being within the family unit.
Enhance Problem-Solving: Equip your family with tools to face future challenges as a cohesive team.
The goal is always to empower your family to leverage its inherent strengths and create a more peaceful, supportive, and joyful home environment, built on a foundation of secure attachment and understanding.
We strive to make therapy accessible and convenient for your family. At Everbloom Counseling, we offer:
In-Person Sessions: Gather your family in our comfortable office in Jackson, Michigan, for a focused and collaborative experience.
Telehealth Sessions: Participate in therapy from the comfort of your home, ideal for busy schedules or when family members are in different locations within Michigan.
Taking the step to engage in family therapy is an investment in your family's future well-being. We are here to support you in building stronger connections and creating a more harmonious home.
