Reasons for Needing Family Counseling

Life and family changes can sometimes lead to strained relationships between you, your spouse and your children. However, it’s perfectly normal to experience conflict or disagreements between you and your loved ones. The guidance of a counselor can help you identify potential causes of stress or tension and allow you to communicate more freely with your family. Some specific familial concerns we address:

  • Parenting – Being a first-time parent can be stressful and overwhelming for any couple. Chapin & Russell can advise best parenting practices and give you the confidence you need when caring for your children.
  • Blended Families – When two separate family units become one, the transition isn’t always seamless. Our counselors can help blended families nurture new relationships and navigate challenges such as the role of step-parents, introducing half-siblings, etc.
  • Life Changes – Certain life events strain family relationships. Divorce, deaths in the family, and moving are just a few significant, life changes you can discuss with your counselor.
  • Interpersonal Challenges – Disagreements between you and your spouse can sometimes lead to stress and conflict throughout your whole family. Chapin & Russell can help restore marital bonds and mend relationships between you and your children.
