Change can occur suddenly, disrupting all that we thought we knew. Change can also occur slowly over time, with our noticing only after we become unhappy. Most of us find change difficult, regardless of the source. Sometimes we are successful in adapting to the change. Sometimes we need outside help. Most of us turn to our family and friends during these challenging times. However, sometimes these difficulties involve our family and friends and we need the help of an outside therapist.

The Therapists of Midtown Family Therapy provide Individual, Couples and Family Therapy.

Individual Therapy: Individuals are complex; each different in personality, family of origin, and experiences. This combination of factors greatly impacts how we handle situations, make decisions, and perceive life in general.   The therapists have created comfortable and welcoming environments where we can help you to address your concerns.

Couples Therapy:  Perhaps as part of a couple, you feel like you are going round and round with the same fights, never finding a solution.  Perhaps you reached the point of no communication. Our therapists have years of experience working with couples at all stages and with all types of conflicts. We can help you learn to communicate better and enrich your relationship.

Family Therapy: Families are dynamic and each family is unique with their own unspoken rules, alliances, and roles. Our therapists' jobs as family therapists is to help your family identify these factors and the degree to which these patterns are helping or hurting your family.  We look for cycles of behavior that get repeated and actively challenge each member of the family to take responsibility for him or herself.

The decision to seek therapy can be a difficult one.  Seeking the support and guidance of a trained professional can help ease the process of working through difficult times. Our passion at Midtown Family Therapy is to support individuals, couples and families as they work towards achieving greater peace and happiness. If you are considering starting therapy, today can be the day you take that step towards a better future.
