Family Mediation

All families experience conflict. Some of the most common areas include: parenting styles, communication skills, respect, parent-child relationship, sibling rivalry and family roles. An experienced therapist from Care @ Capo Beach can assist your family in learning new ways of communication and equip you with the skills you need to resolve family conflict. Family therapy examines the roles, rules, and expectations we take from our family of origin which might not be functioning for your current family system. A therapist from Care can help identify the ineffective behaviors and guide your family to learn and practice more functional ways to be together.
