Family system therapy
If the family relies on attachment as the basis of a sense of safety, then all its members, equally, need to feel stability and belonging.
Individual mental health, is directly proportional to the health of the family system to which the individual belongs
Human beings are able to reach their full potential only when they know they have the support of one or more trusted people, ready to help when difficulties arise.
A healthy personality is far less independent than cultural stereotypes of the past fifty years would suggest.
The need for an attachment figure throughout life is not exclusive to childhood, although it is vital in the early years. It remains a fundamental need in adolescence and adulthood as well.
The natural human need to belong, together with the need to trust someone, forms the foundation of a balanced family life.
From individual to system and from system back to individual, through action and reaction, attachment relationships can develop functional or dysfunctional response patterns, shaping or distorting personalities.
What are the signs that something is not working in your family?
- Your child, although very young, displays a dominant attitude and abusive behavior toward you and/or other family members, especially in the current context where the COVID-19 situation limits your options
- Your child’s seemingly unprovoked tantrums are frequent, and you feel helpless in the face of outbursts of anger you do not understand
- Or your adolescent child, despite your efforts to be present, even while spending long hours at work, withdraws into their own world and seems unable to adapt to academic and social demands
- Your couple relationship has begun to resemble that of roommates or co-tenants
- Seduction feels like far too great an effort after countless working hours, compounded by the discomfort of social restrictions
- You miss the sense of connection and renewal that a fulfilling sexual life once offered, and feel it has transformed before your eyes into a constant concern with merely “getting by”
- Everything seems to have become a pact for survival
How can I help you?
As a psychotherapist practicing family systems therapy and parenting counseling, I view the family as a whole that functions within its own system, developed over time according to the patterns of interaction within it.
Each family is a unique system.
The mechanisms you use within this system are the very ones that the therapy I practice will draw on in order to support you.
- Together, we will discover simple ways in which you can reach agreements
- You will be encouraged to express your thoughts, desires, emotions, and understanding without destroying or invalidating one another
- I will support you in reaching a shared outcome, one of mutual concessions that fit the moment, without canceling each other out
- You will learn how unhelpful blame and criticism are, and you will acquire ways to replace them with attention, appreciation, and mutual respect
- You will develop listening skills that allow you to communicate honestly and directly
Personally, I firmly believe that only within a balanced family, one that lets go of the need for power, can a person feel free and fulfilled. Of course, free to have options and to be able to choose.
The therapy I practice focuses on increasing the sense of personal worth and self-esteem.
As a therapist, I am more attentive to what is happening with you than to keeping track of what is right or wrong, maintaining a natural flow of the process of mutual acceptance.
I am here to help you ease your way.
Each family is unique, and the goal is to find ways that are specific to you and your family system to cope more easily with everyday life.
