  • Not necessarily. While family work often complements ongoing therapy, your clinician can recommend the right structure for your situation.

  • Not exactly. This service focuses more on education, tools, and systemic understanding rather than deep relational processing. It may complement or lead into formal family therapy if needed.

  • We work with families navigating mental health support for teens and adults (ages 13+). If you’re parenting younger children, we may offer referrals or parenting-specific supports.
