Finding Harmony in Family Dynamics
You wake up in the morning to your family. You go home at night to your family. You eat with them, talk with them, and make big life decisions with them. For better or for worse, we learn how to communicate, love, and function with other people partly through the teachings and dynamic of our family. But what if that family doesn’t run quite as smooth as you wish it would?
No family will ever be perfect. Family dysfunction is apparent on some level in every family. It’s part of what being a family is- working through all the arguments, loving even when we hurt each other, and fighting bad habits together. All families can be like this, whether biological, adopted, foster, stepfamily, and everything else! LifewRx wants to help the time you spend with your family be one full of love, growth, and support. Chaos will always exist in a household. But a happy and healthy family unit is more than possible!
Take the First Step Today
Your family didn’t choose conflict, but you can choose healing and growth. Going to family counseling does not mean your family can’t function on its own or is somehow bad or destructive. Life is crazy and sometimes these things happen. The important part is we are finding a solution for it and growing in a way you do want to go.
What is Family Counseling?
LifewRx understands that being a family means working through the frustration and fear with love. That’s not always an easy task, especially when the problems you are facing are painful or exhausting. Our LifewRx counselors and family therapists have years of experience and tools that we can practice to improve communication, problem solving, and planning for the future.
Every session will be different based on what your family wants to address, your future goals, and of course, the unique personality of your family! Some families decide they want to meet individually with a counselor before jumping into a group session. Others decide sitting down as a big, family unit is just what they need. LifewRx is here to help you reach your goals, and we are more than happy to work with you to get there. It’s our job to support, encourage, and guide.
Common ideas usually addressed in a family therapy session:
Could Your Family Benefit from Family Therapy?
So, if fighting and stress is prevalent in all families, where do we draw the line and decide to reach out for outside help? First of all, no problem is too small. LIfewRx wants to help you work through whatever it is you’re facing. Second, instead of asking yourself, “do we need counseling?” ask, “are we as happy as we can be right now?”
The first question suggests something is broken and unfixable without a counselor. This isn’t true! Your family is never broken. It might just need a little extra support in some areas. The second question suggests you are ready to put in the time and effort to improve your family from wherever they are now. It’s a growth mindset, and that is very beneficial in counseling.
Some common situations we see in our clients includes:
The loss of a loved one
A career loss or shift
Divorce

No family is perfect, so everyone could benefit from family therapy. It may seem impossible to have a calm, rested home, but with some hard work and perseverance, it is within reach. Rough patches are inevitable, LifewRx is here to make sure you and your family are prepared for when they do. You all deserve the best. Together, we can make that a reality.
