Family Therapy:

What does this look like:

We support families who:

o Have family members who are from the LGBTIQAP+ and/or neurodivergent communities wanting to learn how to best support and communicate with each other.

o May be learning to understand each other’s unique abilities, strengths and struggles.

o May be feeling stuck.

o Wish to break unhelpful cycles and patterns.

o Are moving through life’s stages, changes and transitions.

o Finding it hard to communicate about gender or a person’s transition.

What to expect:

We acknowledge that bringing the whole family to therapy can feel scary. Your therapist will be there to support and guide all types of conversations. We can use a lot of different frameworks as family therapists, especially at The Courageous Space as integrative family therapists, so sessions may be more structured or experimental, or focus on communication patterns, or the narratives you bring from your backpack of life.

Sometimes family therapy includes sessions with parents only, individuals or the whole family.

These sessions will be for either 60 or 90 mins. You and your therapist will decide together on the length of time needed.
