Do you feel distant from your family members? Are you not spending enough quality time together? Does there always seem to be a disagreement?
Together, we can get to the root of the issues so that you can better understand each other and feel connected as a family.
Families decide to start family therapy for a variety of reasons. Maybe your family experienced a drastic, unexpected change like a move, job loss, or loss of a loved one. You might have a new family member in your home, such as a newborn or an elderly family member. Your family may have experienced trauma, potentially including a car accident, house fire, or natural disaster. Maybe one of your family members is struggling with physical health concerns, mental health concerns, or substance abuse, and it is impacting the entire family unit. Family Therapy can help support and guide your family through these difficult times.
Family Therapy might involve the entire family unit, or portions of the family at a time, such as parent and child, or multiple siblings meeting together. I view the family as an entire unit with the awareness of how certain parts of the family may impact the whole. Each person in the family has an important role to play, and I will provide a safe space for everyone to be heard equally. If someone is unintentionally taking over, or another member would like to share, but has not had the opportunity, I’m here to facilitate these interactions.
In the beginning, I will evaluate and assess your family’s common concerns and goals. Additionally, I will observe your interactions and communication patterns. Next, I will make suggestions to begin helping you solve the most pressing concerns. Some families find relief after a few months of sessions, and other families continue therapy for longer. Family members are welcome to return in the future at any point as life transitions arise.
Does any of this sound familiar? If you are dealing with any of these issues, family therapy can help.

Emily R. Siegel, MSW, LCSW, CCH
I am a Licensed Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist with special expertise in family therapy. I have been working with families since 2010 and am passionate about helping families develop a greater understanding of one another and build on one another’s strengths.
I use Emotion Focused Family Therapy and Internal Family Systems, techniques that address how the family dynamic as a whole impacts each individual and what underlying themes are hidden within your arguments. By working with your family, I will help you rebuild trust, closeness, and mutual empathy.
"Helping families address conflict, distance, or miscommunication so you can reconnect and build stronger bonds."
