Family Therapy & Support
Guidance to Strengthen Relationships & Support Recovery
I facilitate a strengths-based, evidence-informed approach that helps family members support positive change by improving communication, reducing conflict, and reinforcing healthy behaviors. Using the Community Reinforcement and Family Training modality (CRAFT), families learn practical skills to care for themselves, set clear and compassionate boundaries, and encourage their loved one toward safer, more adaptive choices—without blame, coercion, or confrontation.
