Family Therapy Vacations The Ocean View Villa Clinical Associate model and approach to family therapy is both systemic and strategic in focus and centers upon relational strengths and the use of these strengths in addressing difficulties, This model avoids many of the shame inducing dynamics of more “problem focused family therapies". Relational problems are not avoided in this model, but are approached in a manner that supports a fundamental sense of hopefulness and mutual appreciation. Through the use of careful empathic listening, playfulness, relationship coaching, shared activities and humor families rediscover the joys of being connected. |

This treatment model is an excellent avenue for families with treatment resistant members, or unsuccessful earlier attempts at therapy. The opportunity to combine a great vacation with the somewhat anxiety promoting process of directing attention towards one’s struggling relationships is the balance that allows many to move forward in finding a new beginning within the family. The clinical team of O.V.V.C.A. are open to collaboration with community based therapists with whom families, couples and individuals are currently working. For those involved in therapy within their community, if requested, Dr. Stewart will contact and collaborate with their current therapist both before and after treatment. |
