Family Therapy Services in Wheat Ridge & Denver
Healing Family Relationships Through Expert Care and Compassion
When family relationships feel strained or communication has broken down, family therapy can help restore connection and understanding. At Mind, Body, Soulmates PLLC, our team of licensed marriage and family therapists provides comprehensive family counseling services for families in Wheat Ridge, Denver, and throughout Colorado. We offer both in-person and online family therapy sessions to meet your family's unique needs.
Our collaborative approach to family therapy recognizes that every family system is different. Whether you're dealing with trauma, communication challenges, substance use issues, or major life transitions, our experienced mental health professionals are here to guide your family toward healing and stronger relationships.
Family therapy is a specialized form of mental health treatment that focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening relationships among family members. Unlike individual therapy, family therapy sessions address the patterns and dynamics within your family system, helping each family member understand their role in family relationships.
Our marriage and family therapists understand that mental health conditions and emotional challenges don't exist in isolation—they affect the entire family. Through family therapy work, we help families develop healthier communication patterns, process trauma together, and create more supportive family environments.
What Is Family Therapy?
Our Unique Approach to Family Therapy
At Mind, Body, Soulmates PLLC, we bring together multiple marriage and family therapists who collaborate to provide comprehensive care for your entire family. This team approach means different family members can work with different therapists while we maintain coordination to ensure everyone's treatment aligns toward common goals.
Our family therapy approach integrates evidence-based therapeutic modalities with a warm, empathetic understanding of family dynamics. We believe in meeting families where they are with humor when appropriate, genuine care, and the clinical expertise needed to facilitate lasting change.
What Sets Our Family Therapy Apart:

Trauma-Informed Care: We specialize in helping families process shared traumatic experiences, including medical trauma, loss, and childhood trauma that impacts current relationships.
Flexible Service Options: We offer both individual therapy and family therapy sessions, allowing us to address personal mental health conditions while working on family relationships.
Specialized Expertise: Our team includes specialists in neurodivergent families, substance use issues, medical trauma, and complex family dynamics.
Who We Help Through Family Therapy
Our family therapy services are designed for families facing various challenges and transitions. We specialize in working with:
Families Dealing with Trauma
Family therapy can help families process medical trauma, loss of a family member, or childhood trauma that's affecting current relationships. We use specialized approaches like EMDR for families to address trauma within the family system.
High-Functioning Families Under Stress
We frequently work with professional families—attorneys, nurses, engineers, business owners—who appear successful on the surface but struggle with perfectionism, burnout, anxiety, or relationship challenges stemming from unresolved attachment issues.
Couples and Their Children
Our marriage and family therapy addresses relationship challenges between partners while considering the impact on children and the broader family system. We help couples improve communication and rebuild trust, which naturally benefits the entire family.
Neurodivergent Families
When one or more family members are neurodivergent, family therapy can help everyone understand and accommodate these differences, improving communication and reducing conflict.
Families Affected by Substance Use
Our family intervention approach addresses the systemic patterns that develop around substance use while supporting recovery for all family members through specialized family therapy wor
Adult Children and Their Parents
We provide family counseling for adult children working through relationships with aging parents, helping families navigate caregiving responsibilities and communication challenges.
Our Therapeutic Modalities for Family Therapy
Our marriage and family therapists are trained in a comprehensive range of evidence-based approaches that we tailor to each family's specific needs:
EMDR and Trauma Processing
We use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help families process shared traumatic experiences together. Our team is specially trained in EMDR for couples and family trauma work.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy
IFS therapy helps family members understand their own internal "parts" and how these parts interact with others, leading to greater self-awareness and improved family relationships.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
This evidence-based approach helps family members develop more secure attachments and communication patterns, particularly effective for couples and parent-child relationships.
Gottman Method
We utilize research-based Gottman techniques to help families improve communication, manage conflict, and build stronger emotional connections.
Art Therapy
Creative expression through art therapy allows family members to communicate feelings and experiences that may be difficult to express verbally, particularly helpful when working with children or processing trauma.
Somatic Therapy
We integrate body-based approaches that help family members attune to their nervous systems and process trauma held in the body.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
DBT skills help families manage high-conflict situations, regulate emotions, and improve communication, particularly beneficial for families dealing with substance use or behavioral challenges.
