Therapy Services for

Families

Family dynamics can be complex, and sometimes challenges arise that require professional guidance to navigate. At Anne Keen Counseling, I offer specialized family therapy services designed to strengthen relationships, improve communication, and foster a healthier family environment. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where families can work together to overcome obstacles and build stronger connections.

"The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life."

Richard Bach

My Approach

I utilize evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to address the unique needs of each family. These may include:

​

  • Structural Family Therapy: Assessing family dynamics and hierarchies to create healthier boundaries and structures within the family system.

  • Strategic Family Therapy: Utilizing strategic interventions to address specific issues and create positive change within the family unit.

  • Narrative Therapy: Helping family members reframe their narratives and stories to promote healing and resilience.

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Focusing on emotions and attachment bonds to improve family relationships and foster deeper connections.

  • Attachment-Based Family Therapy (ABFT): Addressing attachment issues and strengthening bonds between family members.
     

These modalities, combined with an empathetic and client-centered approach, form the foundation of my therapeutic work with families.
