Family Counseling San Diego
What is Family Counseling?
Life transitions to stressful events put a strain on families.
Family counseling can bring caregivers, parents, children, and the extended family together.
During family counseling in San Diego, you and the family can explore each individual's role in behavior to gain an understanding each one is going through.
You can learn new skills to deepen and repair family connections. You learn to improve communication while expressing the emotions of each person.
Our family therapists believe in accessing your family's strengths to identify solutions to your problems.
We hold each family member accountable to make a change to reach the family goals. So, with our extensive experience, let's help recreate the family dynamics to build a better life.
Our family always seemed to argue about everything. The kids were scared our parents would end up in the divorce court. Finally, we decided to talk to a family therapist at Marriage Counseling of San Diego. She was kind enough to to see us at home. Since everyone took part in the counseling things have gotten better."

Family Therapy: What does it look like?
Our sessions can vary when we work with families. For example, we may include all members, parents, or children in a session.
When needed, we also hold sessions with a parent or caregivers to help with parent coaching and address the family stressors and transitions.
