A family therapy program is a type of therapy that involves a family unit. The concept behind family therapy is that the issues that one individual faces affect the entire family. Typically done once a week, family therapy is accomplished in a group setting where the therapist guides the conversation to help family members resolve conflict and improve communication.
At Steps For Change, we understand that parents need to put their child's health as a top priority. We utilize an evidence-based approach to help kids and teens navigate challenges with emotions and behaviors. Our team of child therapists is well-equipped to meet any and all needs of the children. Therapy for children has a similar purpose to therapy for adults. The main goal of the program is to help kids between the ages of 4-17 understand the struggles they encounter.
To make mental health treatment more accessible in our community, we offer online therapy. Teletherapy is commonly provided using HIPAA-compliant video conferencing software, such as Zoom. The only thing clients need is an internet-capable device and an email address. A client portal allows clients to manage their therapy appointments online and securely communicate with their therapist in between sessions.
EMDR, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, is an evidence-based therapy that is also considered an exposure therapy. Through EMDR therapy in Minnesota, the patient would be able to contemplate those memories without experiencing the distressing emotions that normally accompany them. Individuals will be able to approach their memories and process them without resurfacing triggers.
Major depressive disorder is a severe mental health illness and can be very difficult to manage but we’re here to help. Treatment typically involves a combination of psychotherapy like CBT, medication, and lifestyle changes. People who are opposed to taking anti-depressants can achieve similar benefits if they make positive changes to their lives such as following a healthy diet, incorporating exercise, and participating in talk therapy.
Everyone experiences some sort of anxiety throughout their lives. When it begins to affect school, work, relationships, and everyday activities are when people should seek help. Depending on your specific type of anxiety, which can include social anxiety, panic disorder, separation anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) treatment for anxiety will include a combination of psychotherapy and prescription medication.
Trauma involves a disturbing event affecting a person's well-being. Typically this can be a car accident, natural disaster, sexual abuse, or being attacked. Symptoms can include flashbacks, paranoia, sadness, guilt, confusion, and more. Sometimes traumatic experiences result in long-term effects that negatively impact someone's life, though not all of them do. Treatment can include prolonged exposure therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive processing therapy, or critical incident stress debriefing.
At Steps For Change, we have a specialization in treating sexual behavior problems and court-involved youth while providing support and education groups for families and caregivers.
In a child's development, sexual exploration is normal. As they grow up, they become aware of the cultural and social rules about sexuality and their own bodies. However, it can be difficult to distinguish between healthy and unhealthy sexual behavior. We specialize in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with sexual behavior problems. Clients learn healthy sexual boundaries in a safe and welcoming environment.

If you find out that your child or the youth you care for has acted out sexually, it can be overwhelming and confusing, but you don't have to go through it by yourself. You will have a chance to connect with others who are going through similar struggles in our support and education group for caregivers and families. As well as one-to-one support, we also offer ongoing support groups. Participants in the support and education group will meet one-on-one with the facilitator before the group starts.
