Families seek our services at Midtown MFT when the atmosphere
at home becomes overwhelming, chaotic, angry, and disconnected.
Our family therapy services aim to improve the quality of family life through
nurturing, supportive therapy.
There are many transitions in the family life cycle that present challenges
(having children, adolescent and teen years, aging parents, illnesses, loss,
divorce, financial struggles), and families can often get stuck with one or
more member, causing extreme distress and symptomatic behaviors.
Our approach to family therapy looks at the family as a whole. Our clinicians
are trained to identify the dysfunctional interactional patterns of the family.
We look at the current structure of the family to see how it is organized,
and misaligned.
We aim to create a healthy hierarchy where the parents are united in their
parenting approach and provide consistent rules and expectations for children
to follow. We help parents set boundaries around giving, and teaching responsibility.
We help parents listen to the needs and wants of their children without judgment,
criticism, and stonewalling. We aim to restore children’s faith and
trust in their parents’ ability to be responsive.
We help create connection, trust, and safety within the family system to foster
parents’, own ability to successfully navigate life’s challenges
and transitions.
