Family Psychology Center Approach

Deciding to see a psychologist can be a difficult and important step to take for yourself or your child. You want to know that the professional you choose has good experience and knowledge as well as a compassionate approach. At the Family Psychology Center, we provide high quality care that includes understanding and sensitivity backed by expertise.

At the Family Psychology Center, we believe a strong, trusting relationship between a client and therapist is crucial to the success of therapy. Thus, we provide a safe, comfortable environment to assess your particular concerns and work together to determine a treatment plan. We rely on continual feedback to ensure that we are best meeting your goals. Moreover, we use assessments and treatments that have been supported by research to ensure that you are getting effective care.

We use a family-systems approach to treatment by considering aspects of family, culture, and environment on one’s identity, patterns of behavior, and development. When working with children, we consider behaviors both at home and at school. Moreover, parental involvement in this process is very important. We partner closely with parents to learn about their child’s behaviors and to resolve their areas of concern. In addition to working one-on-one with clients, we can also work with families, couples, and groups. These methods help to further assess patterns of interaction and can provide for additional support and guidance.

At the Family Psychology Center, our goal is to provide a helpful, fulfilling experience for you, your child or teenager. We focus on building upon strengths. Our services focus not only on resolving problems, but also on emphasizing healthy relationships and positive behaviors.
