Family Therapy

We work with all types of families facing a wide range of challenges, including:

Constant conflict or tension at home
Communication breakdowns or misunderstandings
Strained parent-child or sibling relationships
Teen or child behavior concerns
“Failure to launch” / adult child still at home
Co-parenting or parenting disagreements
Blended or step-family challenges
Divorce or separation transitions
Mental health concerns impacting the family system
Boundary issues or lack of respect
Feeling disconnected or walking on eggshells

Family therapy isn’t about figuring out who’s “right”. It’s about learning how to understand each other and work together.

Most therapy focuses on just one person. We look at the entire family system. At Tandem, we specialize in helping families create healthier patterns, stronger relationships, and more peaceful homes.

Our family therapy is:

Neutral and non-judgmental — we don’t take sides
Safe and respectful — everyone’s voice matters
Tailored to YOUR family — not a one-size-fits-all model
Focused on improving communication and connection
Supportive of both parents and children/teens
Inclusive of all family structures and identities
Growth-focused — not court or compliance-based
Collaborative — we work with individual therapists in-house if needed

We’re not here to blame. We’re here to help the family heal—together.

No two families are the same—so no two treatment plans should be either. Depending on your family’s needs, we may incorporate:

Family systems therapy (understanding patterns and roles)
Attachment-based work (emotional needs and security)
Communication and conflict resolution tools
Parent coaching and support
Boundary-setting and structure
Emotion regulation and coping skills (DBT-informed)
Processing transitions (divorce, blending, launching, loss)
Individual + family sessions when appropriate

We adjust who is in the room depending on the goals—sometimes everyone, sometimes just certain members, sometimes parents only. The process is flexible and customized to what will help your family the most.

Because when one person is struggling, the whole family feels it.

Families are meant to be a source of support—but sometimes communication breaks down, tension builds, or you get stuck in the same painful patterns over and over again. You love each other, but everything feels hard.

Maybe arguments happen over even the smallest things.
Maybe someone in the family is struggling emotionally or behaviorally.
Maybe you’re blending families or going through a divorce.
Maybe your child or teen has pulled away and you don’t know how to reach them.
Maybe your adult child is still at home and everyone feels stuck.

Whatever your situation—you don’t have to navigate it alone. Family therapy helps you rebuild connection, improve communication, and create a healthier, more peaceful home.

Each session is guided by a therapist who helps the family:

Talk in a safer, more respectful way
Understand each other’s perspectives
Identify and break unhelpful patterns
Build empathy and connection
Learn healthier ways to handle conflict
Develop tools to use at home
Create solutions together

Parents and children (young or teen)
Co-parents (together or separated)
Blended / step-families
Adult children and parents
Families navigating mental health issues
Families going through major transitions
Families who feel stuck and want change

Healthy families aren’t perfect—they have the tools to navigate challenges together.

Because it focuses on the relationships between people, not just the individuals themselves. Family therapy helps everyone:

Feel heard and understood
Improve communication skills
Reduce conflict and tension
Build mutual respect
Set healthy boundaries
Strengthen emotional connection
Support each other more effectively
Create lasting change at home
