Family Reconnection Therapy
Restore the bond between parents and adult children.
Through respectful dialogue and structured guidance, therapy helps families resolve past hurts and rebuild meaningful relationships.
A healthy relationship between a parent and their adult children is a life long blessing. It’s a valued connection that provides friendship, support, guidance, stability and family unity. Like all well-functioning relationships, it requires effective communication and respectful interactions. Often times parents and their adult children become distant due to conflicts, past resentments, or just simply taking the relationship for granted. Therapy provides a structured and neutral environment that supports both the parent and adult child in expressing their concerns, frustrations and hurts. The therapist provides education on relationship skills and healthy interactions that facilitate healing and improved family dynamics.
What to Expect
If it’s your first time pursuing therapy, you may be hesitant to commit to the process. New and unfamiliar experiences often create uncertainty.
However, therapy (commonly referred to as counseling) isn’t new or unusual. Counseling has existed as long as humans have walked the earth. Whether it’s from a friend, relative, mentor or religious figure, people look to fellow human beings for support.
A licensed therapist provides professional, specialized guidance and interventions.
The initial session involves gathering information about current and past struggles. Clients leave the first session with a preliminary action plan and homework exercises (homework is given after all sessions).
The second session involves a review of homework, further assessment of unproductive thinking patterns and education on developing healthy perceptions of self, others and circumstances.
By the third meeting, clients often begin feeling more confident and equipped to address the deeper (root) issues that are fueling unwanted emotions and behaviors. It is recommended that clients complete 3 consecutive weekly sessions to quickly facilitate change and generate hope that things can improve. Sessions will then be scheduled as needed.
