PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR COUPLES

Love is one of the most powerful emotions humans experience. Love is not always easy nor is it always kind, but we all want a life of love, support, and companionship. Whether you are looking to enrich a healthy relationship, rejuvenate one gone awry or move towards another loving relationship Hope Kelaher Therapy can help. Using an emphasis on emotionally-focused couples therapy, Hope Kelaher Therapy addresses common obstacles faced by couples at every stage of their relationship by exploring the emotional underpinnings of the relationship to support attunement, attachment, and connection.

Through this process, Hope Kelaher Therapy will help guide you in defining and redefining critical moments in your relationship to help you form a secure and longstanding bond.

PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR FAMILIES

Home is where the story begins, and where family legacies live on. There is no roadmap for the journey of parenthood, and whether you are parenting a child, teenager, or young adult there are many concrete and emotional challenges families face as they evolve.  Some of the common challenging problems families face: include anxiety, depression, addiction issues, behavioral problems, aging family members, and traumatic life course changes such as death and illness.

Using a family systems approach, Hope Kelaher Therapy believes that members of a family are only as healthy as the whole family unit, and that when one member of the family is suffering it has an impact on everyone within the family.  Using family systems and cognitive behavioral approaches, Hope Kelaher Therapy provides support and guidance to family members while broadening the family’s understanding of the issue, exploring replications of this issue in the family’s developmental history, and identifying and modifying problematic interactional patterns within the family system.

Hope Kelaher Therapy works to help families build empathy for those within their system and provide techniques and skills to manage ongoing challenges.
