Family Dysfunction Therapy
Betsy Michelena works with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues providing services that span from therapy for depression and grief counseling to parenting support, couples counseling and beyond. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, Betsy offers a highly personalized approach tailored to each of her client's individual needs to help attain the personal growth they’re striving for.
When an individual or couple comes to see Betsy, there are a few things they can expect. Betsy is easy to talk too and understands that to get to the source of the problem, there is a great deal of background information that needs to be collected. To get great results, it is helpful to Betsy in assessing what may or may not be problematic and the greater the picture she has of each individual and of the relationship in general. Once we complete the general picture of each person, you can expect that we will move to what brought the couple to see me. This is where we find “the problem” and work toward a feasible solution and repair. It is often at this point in a session where Betsy reminds people that there are three versions to every story – your side, their side, and the truth somewhere in the middle. Betsy doesn't worry too much about the “facts” of a situation because we are all shaded in our perspectives and while what happened does matter, what matters more is how we feel about what has happened and what we want for our futures.
