Family Therapy Institute

Transforming Lives Since 1979

At FTI, we believe that strong, safe and loving families are the foundation of thriving communities.

Our mission flows through three interconnected streams of impact:

 Together, they create a ripple effect of transformation—healing relationships, strengthening professionals, and building more resilient communities for generations to come.

Psychotherapy

We walk alongside families, couples and individuals of all ages in their most challenging moments, offering compassionate, evidence-based therapy to facilitate positive change and to provide new social and emotional skills.

Professional Training

We empower the next generation of healers and helpers, equipping mental health professionals with cutting-edge, research-driven systemic psychotherapy approaches that honor the complexity of human relationships and the diversity of our community.

Public Education

We illuminate pathways to wellness for entire communities, sharing knowledge and resources to strengthen relationships, improve mental health, and increase kindness and connection.

Over the decades we have helped thousands of individuals, couples, families, and children and teens from all walks of life and diverse backgrounds with a wide range of presenting problems.

Parent Challenges:

From managing behavioral issues to navigating complex relationships between parents and children, our methods provide the tools families need to thrive during challenging times.

Mental Health Disorders:  

We treat clients with depression, anxiety, substance abuse and other mental health challenges integrating body, mind and spirit, and addressing root causes.

Trauma and Recovery:

We help individuals and families process trauma together, building stronger, more supportive environments for recovery.

Couples/Relationship Issues:

We help couples with communication problems, life cycle transitions, intimacy or sexual concerns, escalated conflicts, or preventive skill building.

Family Loss or Transition:

We assist families going through divorce or remarriage, coping with illness or death of loved ones, relocation, job loss, and financial struggles.

End of Life/Healthy Aging:

We help clients and their loved ones navigate the challenges of aging and end of life, addressing their fears with loving compassion.
