Family Therapy and Counseling in Redwood City and Bay Area CA
We specialize in working with families that are ready to shift from stress and misunderstanding into healthier, more connected patterns. Through a thoughtful and collaborative approach, we help you get to the root of what’s not working so you can create a home life that feels more peaceful and in sync.
We offer in-person sessions in the Bay Area and virtual sessions for families throughout California.
Supportive Family Therapy to Strengthen Relationships
Family therapy provides a space for everyone to be heard. Our sessions are not about placing blame. They’re about understanding each person’s experience and helping the family work together in a healthier, more respectful way.
At Beyond Measure, we often see families who:
- Have frequent arguments, power struggles, or communication breakdowns
- Are navigating co-parenting or blended family dynamics
- Are supporting a child or teen with anxiety, depression, other mental health conditions, or behavioral challenges
- Are dealing with transitions such as separation, divorce, relocation, or grief
- Want to understand each other better and build more connection
Our goal is to help you move from conflict to collaboration. We look at family dynamics holistically and support each member in feeling safe, seen, and respected.
Therapy for Parents, Caregivers, and Children Across the Bay Area
When to Seek Family Therapy in Redwood City
- Communication feels tense or shut down
- One or more family members is struggling with a mental health condition
- You feel disconnected from your child or teen
- You feel like you’re “walking on eggshells” at home
- Sibling rivalry or conflict is escalating
- Parenting feels like a constant power struggle
- You’re noticing stress from changes like a new job, move, divorce, or the loss of a loved one
- You want to be more intentional about your family culture
Some families come to us in crisis. Others come when things are “okay,” but they know something could be better. In either case, family therapy can help you build stronger foundations and support lasting change.
What to Expect from Family Therapy at Beyond Measure
In our early sessions, we’ll explore patterns, stressors, and strengths in your family system. You can expect us to ask questions like:
- What does a typical day look like in your household?
- How do you resolve conflict?
- What do you wish the other family members could understand about you?
- What feels like it’s working well, and what’s causing the most tension?
Because our practice includes therapists and dietitians with a wide range of training, we’re also able to support families navigating challenges that intersect with food, body image, ADHD, trauma, or other mental health concerns. If your child is also working with a dietitian or individual therapist on our team, we’ll collaborate internally to make sure your family therapy is aligned and integrated.
These may include:
- Attachment-Based Therapy
- Family Systems Therapy
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Trauma-Informed Therapy
- Parenting Skills Coaching
Our therapists are warm, curious, and collaborative. We believe in working alongside you rather than positioning ourselves as experts on your family. You are the experts. We simply help reflect back patterns, offer guidance, and support the growth you want to see.
Our work is also deeply affirming. We welcome families of all backgrounds, identities, and configurations. Whether you’re a two-parent household, co-parents, chosen family, LGBTQ+ family, or navigating unique cultural considerations, you will be met with respect and understanding.
Adolescence is a time of massive growth, identity formation, and emotional exploration. For parents, it can feel like their child has suddenly become a stranger. For teens, it can feel like their parents just don’t get it.
Family therapy creates space for both experiences to be validated.
We help teens feel heard without judgment, and we help parents understand what’s underneath the behavior. Often, what looks like defiance or withdrawal is actually anxiety, overwhelm, or a need for autonomy.
Our therapists support families in:
- Building emotional literacy
- Learning how to listen without defensiveness
- Practicing repair and accountability
- Developing more collaborative decision-making processes
- Reconnecting after periods of disconnection
This kind of work can be transformative. It not only improves the present-day family dynamic, but also gives teens lifelong tools for communication and self-awareness.
When therapy ends, we want you to feel more confident as a family unit. We want your relationships to feel more authentic, and your home to feel more like a safe haven than a battleground.
Some outcomes our families report include:
- Greater empathy and understanding across generations
- Reduced conflict and increased cooperation
- Improved communication and problem-solving
- Stronger parent-child bonds
- A deeper sense of connection and emotional safety
Even small changes can have a ripple effect. When one part of the family system shifts, everyone has the opportunity to grow.
Our Redwood City therapists are currently accepting new family therapy clients, both in-person in the Bay Area and virtually across California.
Let’s start building the kind of family life you all deserve.
