Creating Healthy Connections with Carol H. Corcoran

Help for Families

What makes up the members of a family can take many forms beyond a traditional mother and father. The configuration, whether the traditional two parent family, co-parents due to divorce, adoptive parents, a blended family, a single parent, or same sex parents can, at times, result in a great many challenges for the family unit. Challenges that can lead one or many members of the family to feel as though they are navigating their way through a maze or labyrinth and aren't certain if they are on the right path.

There are times on the path of "family life" where transition from one area to another becomes blocked or detoured when least expected. Being "stuck" in a family dynamic that seems unchanging can be frustrating as old patterns of interaction repeat ceaselessly , causing family members to feel locked in a rut. Carol has years of experience working with families through many life transitions and challenges, and can help move the family to a place where they are able to see the forest for the trees and thereby move beyond blocks and detours.
