Helping Families Heal, Reconnect, and Move Forward Together

Families are supposed to be a source of support — but sometimes they’re where the deepest wounds live.

Whether your family is navigating strained communication, emotional disconnection, unresolved trauma, or fallout from addiction, therapy can offer a path forward. I’m Katie Luman, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Marietta, GA, and I specialize in helping families repair trust, build boundaries, and communicate with empathy and respect.

If your family feels stuck in painful patterns, therapy can help create meaningful change — not just for one person, but for the system as a whole.

What Brings Families to Therapy?

Families often seek counseling when there is:

  • Conflict that keeps repeating with no resolution

  • A breakdown in communication or constant misunderstandings

  • A teen or adult child “acting out” or pulling away

  • Lingering pain from addiction, divorce, or generational dysfunction

  • A parent-child relationship that feels distant or reactive

  • Struggles with roles, boundaries, or emotional responsibilities

Family therapy is especially powerful for Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACoAs), families with codependency dynamics, and those navigating life after addiction or mental health crises.

How Family Therapy Works

In our work together, we’ll clarify what’s not working — and why — using a blend of:

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS): to understand emotional roles and parts

  • Person-Centered Therapy: to give each family member space to be heard

  • Psychodynamic insight: to address generational patterns and unmet needs

  • Clear boundary-setting: so members can learn how to respect each other’s autonomy while remaining emotionally connected
