Couples and Family Counseling
Family Counseling

Maintaining marital and family balance is challenging.  As children age, discipline must change to promote healthy growth and decision making skills. Parenting, while experiencing  lifestyle change or crisis is especially trying for the family.  Family counseling is offered as an adjunct additional service to individual counseling, it is not offered as a separate service.  If you have recognized the need for help in this area, call (972) 522-8448 today.

If you are in a mental health crisis, call 911 for immediate assistance.  

Like a tradition, positive and negative behavior can be passed down generation to generation.  Couples and Family therapy can help break destructive generational life patterns by providing a safe place to identify and discuss problems. 

Healthy families :

- Recognize differences in opinions are inevitable, and work with instead of against each other.

- Know how toListen to one another before responding.

 - Recognize and appreciate differences instead to making them a source of contention.

-  Boundaries and rules are clear and consistent so members know what to expect.  

Consider Counseling if there are: 

- Increased conflicts over parental discipline

- Parental or teen alcohol & drug abuse

- Isolation, withdrawal, or avoidance of each other

- Inability to solve problems

Family counseling provides a safe place to communicate, work together, and implement a plan for growth.   

T. N.  from a family of five said:

We came into counseling with Lisa Evans unable to talk to each without it turning into an angry argument or  the silent treatment. We were headed for disaster. Lisa helped us learn how to communicate without attacking each other, slow down our reactions, and actually listen instead of just waiting for our turn to defend ourselves. 

One of the biggest challengeswas learning how to call a healthy truce during conflict instead of letting fights spiral out of control for days. Lisa gave us practical tools that worked in real life, not just in the office. Our home feels calmer, safer, and we're more connected now. We still disagree, but we are able to handle it better and forgive so we no longer feel like enemies. Counseling with Lisa truly helped save our relationship.”
