Family Therapy in Kingston
Supporting Families Through Life Transitions and Stress
Families in Kingston know that life can move quickly... between work, school, caregiving, and community commitments, it’s easy to lose touch with one another. When stress builds or communication breaks down, even strong families can struggle to stay connected.
At Tiny Therapy Collective, our therapists provide a supportive space where families can explore challenges, rebuild understanding, and navigate transitions with care. Whether you’re facing conflict, loss, or changes in family roles, therapy can help you strengthen the relationships that matter most.
“Every family experiences change — what defines you is how you move through it together.”
How Family Therapy Can Help
Family therapy helps families understand each other’s perspectives, manage conflict more effectively, and develop new communication patterns. Many families in Kingston seek therapy for:
-
Communication difficulties or emotional distance
-
Parenting stress or changing roles within the household
-
The effects of anxiety or depression on family life
-
Substance use or recovery transitions
-
Adjustments after separation, remarriage, or relocation
Evidence-Based Approaches We Use
Our therapists use proven approaches tailored to each family’s needs:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful patterns of thought and behaviour.
-
Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) to build empathy and connection.
-
Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) to encourage collaboration and highlight strengths.
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to promote flexibility and shared values.
We also integrate Couples Therapy and Caregiver Mental Health supports when relationship dynamics or caregiving roles add additional strain.
Everyday Supports for Families
-
Practice active listening — aim to understand before responding.
-
Schedule short, positive check-ins each week.
-
Recognize progress, not perfection.
-
Encourage self-care: see Stress and Burnout for practical strategies.
If your family is also managing Perinatal Mental Health or Substance Use challenges, our related services provide additional guidance and resources.
