Marriage and Family Therapy, addressing the needs of the individual and family as a whole:

Being a parent is rewarding, but it's also constant self-sacrifice and hard work. This can be especially true when you have children going through a phase of boundary-testing. Sometimes developing a family contract can alleviate some of that stress, while helping your children understand what's expected of them. Check out our attached "Family Contract Ideas" and call to set up a counseling appointment if you need other ideas to help you and your family: (530) 413-0032.

Maintaining a marriage can be difficult work, especially when the children come along and spouses don't have time to adequately work through issues.

We can help you identify and resolve issues like this through individual, couples, and family counseling: (530) 413-0032
