The Family Inheritance
What's passed down isn’t just material — it’s emotional, relational & spiritual.
The Contract. The Jewels. The Curse.
Break the spell cast before you arrived.
The roles we inherit aren’t always conscious — but they shape everything.
Do you act out the pain no one else will name
or tell the truth and then get blamed?
Did you keep the peace but lose yourself
or carry their legacy and never ask for help?
If you’re the one who makes it all okay
what price did you pay?
Are you repeating history
or did you see the pattern and break away?
Become a relational philanthropist.
Choose what you want to preserve.
Give the rest away.
A 12-week, systems-based approach to family therapy designed to explore the roles we inherit, the patterns we repeat, and the new possibilities that emerge when we consciously choose to relate differently.
This is family therapy for families who want to move beyond blame and toward repair — with humor, humility, and heart.
Strengthen your family’s foundation with new ways of communicating, listening, and creating accountability.
The program structure blends individual and conjoint sessions.
We explore the deeper architecture of your internal family systems by mapping 12 core archetypes.
Who were you asked to be in your family? What unspoken agreements have you made? Is that how you want it to be?
Bridging the internal and the external, we’ll ask questions like, “How does your inner child show up?” — and also, “How does your actual child show up?” Are you aware of how they relate?
Bringing these dynamics to light invites insight, connection, and healing.
Each week offers a new lens, a new invitation, and a new opportunity to shift how you show up for each other.
The health and well being of each family member is reciprocal. For the family to thrive, each member of the family needs to heal as an individual and in relationship to the others. In family therapy, each voice needs adequate space to:
Without healthy, open communication this can seem like an aspirational fantasy.
Exploring multiple perspectives and restoring equilibrium is crucial when the problem is expressed in the dynamic relationship between the whole and the parts. As a licensed Bay Area Marriage and Family Therapist, my role is to teach you the skills to:
Quiet tension in the marriage. A self-harming teen. Inherited trauma. Perceived or real abandonment. Rampant narcissism, affairs, addictions and lies that feed on more lies. Secrets so dark, shame would bury them except the issues keep surfacing in unanticipated ways:
Determining where the problem originated may feel nearly impossible. At a certain point, what matters is that:
Everyone’s Healed until they go Home for the Holidays
Even the most self-aware among us can be pulled back into old patterns.
Family therapy offers a space to notice the trigger — and respond differently.
If your family is by birth or by choice, if you are new parents or the adult children of aging parents, if you are married or separated or divorced or partnered, the relationship dynamics of a complex, living and changing system have the power to nurture or destroy.
Nothing quite gets to the core of human existence as the emotions stirred by our intimate relations.
We distinguish ourselves and grow as individuals in relationship to others. By healing our relationships, we too become whole.
