Almost nothing is more difficult for a parent than watching their child struggle with choices and behaviors that only add to their challenges. You know there’s a good kid in there, but you don’t know how to reach them any longer; you feel like you’re losing the battle to save them from themselves. All too quickly, your home is in chaos and you don’t know what to do next.
Support is out there, and there is no judgment in using it. It doesn’t mean you’re a “bad parent” or that you have a “bad kid”... it just means that right now, a little guidance and support would be beneficial for both your child and your family. Kids don’t come with an instruction manual; let us help you find what works best for your child. It can get better, and you don’t have to work through it alone.
Group therapy can improve mental health and encourage personal growth by helping people develop better social and communication skills. It is a place where participants can learn from each other and benefit from community support. Fun, often funny and engaging group activities help participants practice relationship skills in a safe space. Through reciprocal conversations and role-playing activities, participants can get in-the-moment feedback and learn as they go. Groups strive to create and maintain a positive, optimistic atmosphere. Problem-solving, compromise, perspective taking, theory of mind, recognizing various emotions and friendship skills are critically important for success in both personal and workplace relationships. Therefore, these skills are targeted in many mental health groups. Read about our current group therapy offering.
Every relationship is a work-in-progress, whether it’s keeping the sparks alive in a romantic relationship or maintaining healthy role identities in a family setting. It’s work, and it’s not always as easy as you think it should be. Partners grow in different directions, and struggle in identifying how to keep their paths moving forward together; parents and children have challenges with adapting to changing roles and responsibilities. It can be messy, and it can be painful… especially when you feel alone in the struggle.
There is support available for navigating these ever-changing landscapes. While we don’t have the maps already made, we can help you create your own plan for working through the obstacles that are inherent in human relationships. It can get better.
