Skills practiced with the whole family while in session; guidance offered throughout
Exploring solutions and identifying underlying needs is at the core of the focus.
Some skills introduced are communication skills, emotions regulation skills for the whole family, skills will be practiced outside of session to support skills development.
The frequency of session is family based.
Young child therapy:
involves one child and at least one of the parents/guardians; an adult the client feels comfortable with. I have learned over the years child needs their caregiver the most.
Therapy with young children is most successful when the caregiver is involved. When caregiver and client practice the skills together; the client is more successful in developing the skills for independent use as they age.
This works best for younger children.
Benefits of online Family therapy:
provides unique opportunities to associate the therapy and success you will experience while in therapy to the home environment.
* Provides treatment in home while honoring the family’s privacy.
* Most experiences of conflict occur within the family environment.
* Families would highly benefit from in-home services but often are uncomfortable having an stranger enter into the home; totally understandable.
