Psychotherapy with Families

Every family has its unique dynamics. Family therapy can be helpful when those long-lasting dynamics become dysfunctional or toxic for one or more family members. Family therapy at Two Minds is a deep, exploratory approach that seeks to uncover unconscious dynamics, unresolved conflicts, and emotional patterns that shape family relationships to help you feel closer to your family.

The Therapeutic Process

The first and most important step of family therapy is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space for open discussion and reflection. This process can be deeply vulnerable, requiring a skilled clinician to guide and support your family’s journey. Each family member will then share their personal experiences and perspectives on family conflicts and struggles. The goal of therapy is to foster a deeper understanding of how past experiences—such as childhood attachments and parental influences—shape current relationships while helping your family develop healthier ways to communicate and connect with one another.
