Family Therapy in Aventura, Florida.
Family Therapy in Aventura, Florida
At Mendel Toron Psychotherapy Group, we understand that families are complex systems where each member’s well-being is deeply interconnected. When one member struggles, the ripple effects are often felt by everyone. Our Family Therapy services in Aventura, Florida, are designed to help families heal, grow, and strengthen their relationships by addressing conflicts, improving communication, and fostering mutual understanding.
Whether your family is navigating a specific challenge or simply seeking to deepen its connections, our therapists provide compassionate and expert care tailored to your unique dynamics. We specialize in evidence-based modalities that have been proven to create lasting change: Attachment-Based Family Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) for Families.
Attachment-Based Family Therapy
Attachment-Based Family Therapy (ABFT) focuses on strengthening the emotional bonds between family members. This approach is especially effective for families experiencing disconnection, mistrust, or emotional distance. By exploring the attachment needs of each family member, ABFT helps repair strained relationships and rebuild trust.
In ABFT sessions, we:
Create a safe space for open and honest dialogue.
Address past hurts or unresolved conflicts that may be impacting current dynamics.
Foster secure attachments that promote emotional resilience and support.
Why it works: When family members feel securely connected, they are better equipped to face challenges together and support one another through life’s ups and downs.
Structural Family Therapy
Structural Family Therapy (SFT) focuses on the organization and hierarchy within a family. This approach helps families realign their interactions and establish healthy boundaries to improve functioning as a cohesive unit. SFT is particularly effective for families dealing with power struggles, communication breakdowns, or difficulties adapting to new roles (e.g., after a divorce or a significant life transition).
In SFT sessions, we:
Identify patterns of interaction that may be contributing to dysfunction.
Work to reorganize family roles and boundaries in a way that supports healthy relationships.
Empower parents or caregivers to take leadership roles within the family structure.
Why it works: By addressing the "blueprint" of your family’s dynamics, SFT provides a framework for lasting harmony and balance.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) for Families
Internal Family Systems (IFS) for Families brings the transformative power of IFS therapy into the family context. This modality helps family members understand and connect with their internal "parts" while fostering empathy for the internal experiences of others. IFS for Families encourages each member to bring their best self forward in interactions.
In IFS sessions, we:
Help each family member explore their inner world and understand how their "parts" (e.g., protector parts, exiled parts) influence their behavior.
Create space for compassionate communication, where each person’s needs and emotions are acknowledged.
Build mutual respect and understanding, reducing conflict and promoting collaboration.
Why it works: IFS allows families to break free from reactive cycles and approach each other with curiosity, compassion, and care.
