Family Therapy in Atlanta, Sandy Springs & Decatur
Rebuild the connections that matter most.
Family communication can break down in ways that feel impossible to untangle. We help your family understand where those patterns started — so you can find your way back to each other.
Who is Family Therapy for?
We work with you to strengthen your family unit and improve communication where the family system has broken down.
Family relationships can become strained when communication breaks down and longstanding patterns begin to interfere with connection. We help families understand the dynamics beneath their struggles, identify what is no longer working, and develop healthier ways of communicating and relating to one another. Through a combination of whole-family sessions and smaller sessions with family members in pairs, we work to strengthen relationships, improve understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change between parents and children.

Family Therapists at J Lewis Therapy
Real change takes real time. We're here for the long haul.
Our trained clinicians offer family therapy, bringing their own specialties and approach within our shared long-term, psychodynamic framework.
Our Approach to Family Therapy
We start by understanding your family's history and dynamics as a whole, then work with individual pairs when it helps. Everything shared in these sessions stays open to the full family — trust and honesty are the foundation — with one exception: what's shared between parents stays confidential.
Two Atlanta offices — or wherever you are virtually.

Frequently Asked Questions About Family Therapy
Trust and safety are the foundations of any relationship, often by the time you reach our office, so much trust and safety has been broken. We start with the foundation, identifying the ways the family no longer feels safe to communicate with one another. As that gets worked through, we take steps to rebuild trust, but that can only happen if the foundation is solid.
We work with children age 14 and older.
Yes — all of our clinicians offer telehealth for family sessions.
We believe therapy is a long-term, relational commitment. The length varies by family, but we always prioritize enough time to get to the root of the concern rather than putting a band-aid on it.
We're not in-network with insurance providers, but we can provide a superbill you can submit to your PPO for potential reimbursement.
