Navigating Family Challenges and Trust
Are you experiencing difficulties within your family unit? Perhaps there has been a breach in trust and you are uncertain as to how to move forward? Or maybe you are experiencing problems related to communication, respect, or financial distress?
What is Family Therapy?
Families can be both our most significant source of encouragement and frustration. Although a cohesive family can provide a solid foundation for its members, a distressed family can cause suffering and difficulty. At Genesis Family Foundation, we recognize that familial connections are complex. Each family is unique, with each member contributing their own set of strengths and shortcomings. Family therapy is a specialized form of counseling that focuses on addressing the relational dynamics within the family system to promote understanding, communication, and healing.
Our therapists are trained to detect the intricate interplay of relationships within your family and provide tailored solutions for restoration. While relationships within families can sometimes cause pain, they also have the power to heal. We believe that with effort and guidance, every family can find hope and healing.
Recognizing the Need for Family Therapy
Families seek therapy for a variety of reasons, including:
Behavioral Issues with Children and Adolescents: Struggles with discipline, defiance, or behavioral disorders.
Communication Problems: Difficulty expressing emotions, conflicts, or misunderstandings.
Distress from a Family Member’s Addiction: Coping with the impact of substance abuse or other addictive behaviors.
Financial Distress: Managing financial strain and its effects on family dynamics.
Grief: Coping with loss and navigating the grieving process as a family.
Issues Involving Parents’ Relationship: Challenges related to separation, divorce, or co-parenting.
In-Law Dynamics: Managing relationships with extended family members and in-laws.
If a relationship within your family is showing signs of addiction, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, severe depression, or other serious concerns, it's crucial to seek guidance from a counselor immediately for the safety and well-being of you and your family.

OUR PROCESS
How The Process Works

Free Consultation
Sign up for a free, 15-minute consultation through the request form at the bottom of this page.
You will be contacted to schedule your consultation.
During your consultation, you will have the opportunity to explain why you are seeking therapeutic services as well as have the opportunity to hear more about the counseling department. During this call, you and the therapist will be able to identify if your needs can be met through the counseling department, and if you mutually decide to proceed with scheduling your first appointment.

First Session
Once your first appointment has been scheduled, you will receive information pertaining to the informed consent paperwork. You will also be asked to complete a document on your basic background information to submit prior to your first session, which will further inform your therapist on your specific needs and history.
Finally, payment information will be collected for your file, although you will only be charged after each scheduled session time.
During your first session, your therapist will review informed consent documents and you and your therapist will collaborate to identify your specific treatment goals and plan.

Meeting Treatment Goals
Once your treatment goals have been met, your sessions will begin phasing out until treatment is no longer needed.
