About this service

Family Therapy in Atlanta

When one person in a family is struggling, everyone feels it. A move, a divorce, a loss or a season of constant conflict can leave a family stuck in patterns that no one chose. Family therapy gives each person a place to be heard, and gives the family as a whole a chance to find new ways of being together.

We see families at our Glenwood Park office in Atlanta, a short drive from Decatur.

What Family Therapy Can Help With

  • Divorce and other family transitions
  • Grief and loss
  • Big changes at home, such as a move, a new baby, or a change in who lives in the house
  • Communication that has broken down, or conflict that keeps repeating
  • A child’s or teen’s emotional or behavioral struggles that are affecting the whole family

What Sessions Look Like

Your therapist will begin by getting to know your family and what brought you in. Depending on what your family needs, sessions may bring everyone together, or a parent and child, or siblings, at different points along the way. With younger children in the room, play is often part of the work, since play is a child’s first and natural language.

More Support for Parents

Parent Coaching

Often, parents feel stuck and are looking for guidance and support. Coaching is a collaborative approach to help parents find solutions that fit their parenting style. Through Filial Therapy, parents are trained to provide special play time to their children, similar to play therapy. You can learn how to reconnect with your child and form a new kind of bond!
