Sometimes families resist Anger by withdrawing, until it seems that all communication has failed. Distrust and Hurt may have dug out a rut that seems too deep to escape. Isolation can deaden life, repressing all feelings and responses.

Children or teens may neglect their hygiene, or begin cutting themselves or taking physical risks. They may act out severely at school, in an attempt to create some movement at home. Alcohol and drug use may increase in adults and in youth. These are properly considered calls for help, and need to be responded to, as soon as possible.

How I will work with you:

This can be such a heavy place! Despair and Depression can make basic tasks feel impossible to do, and Isolation leaves everyone carrying their burdens alone. My role here is to work very hard to help couples, adults, children and youth rediscover what they once shared, what they now need, and to find their way back to connections that feel healthy and safe.

I will meet with as many family members as possible, once a week for the first 6 or 7 sessions. After that, we might decide that once or twice a month is good for the next 3 or 4 meetings. Check-ins and update meetings are always an option, once things have improved. Depending on the situation, between 9 and 11 meetings can be expected.

Although reaching out may seem very difficult, please, email me at bmillerconsulting@gmail.com . I will get back to you right away, and help you find the support you need.

If you feel desperate or have a plan in place for harming yourself, do not take any other action until you have talked to someone about your plan!
