Family Therapy
Who Family Therapy Can Support
We provide family therapy and counseling for families in Durham, the Triangle area, and across North Carolina, offering in-person and virtual support for communication challenges, behavior concerns and behavior challenges, family transitions, and emotional connection.
​
Families are at the heart of our lives, and even strong bonds can feel strained during times of stress, conflict, or change. Therapy offers a place to pause, reconnect, and explore new ways of understanding one another—whether you’re welcoming a new child, navigating adolescence, adjusting to loss, or feeling weighed down by ongoing tension.​​
​
Rather than focusing on blame or quick fixes, we create space for each person’s experience to be seen and understood, helping families move toward patterns of interaction grounded in respect, empathy, and resilience.​​​
​
Some families also explore parent support services or child and teen therapy alongside family sessions, depending on their needs and goals.
Common referral areas include:
-
Family communication challenges and ongoing conflict
-
Behavior concerns at home or school
-
New or existing medical, developmental, or mental health diagnoses within the family
-
Life transitions, loss, and major family changes
-
Parenting and coparenting adjustments

Stress, emotional disconnection, or feeling “stuck” as a family
