Are you worried how your fighting is affecting your children?
- Do they cry when you fight?
- Are they becoming withdrawn or showing mood changes?
- Are they using drugs or alcohol to cope?
- Are their grades dropping?
- Is there a change in their friendships?
- Are they refusing to communicate with you?
It's not the fighting that's the problem, it's the way you fight and that problems never get resolved.
And your children are not only watching the way you fight but learning lessons as well. From a very young age, children learn from the most important people in their lives, their parents. There is a significant correlation between what a child learns from those closest and how those lessons effect their future relationships with others.
If you or your partner learned unhealthy communication patterns from your own families, you may be repeating those patterns; even if you told yourself growing up "I'll never be like that." Unfortunately, while you may be very motivated, it takes learning a different set of communication skills to avoid those unhealthy fighting behaviors.
That's where we can help. Let us teach you the skills to resolve healthy arguments. With Brief-Therapy, you'll learn techniques and develop tools to successfully deal with conflict. You can then apply what you've learned to future situations, and effectively handle new dilemmas on your own.

Innovative Techniques
Dr. Stulberg and her staff use innovative techniques that accelerate healing from individual struggles and relationship problems to family issues and marital conflict. But that's not all. You'll also learn to:
- Resolve conflicts, not repeat them
- Achieve honest, respectful two-way communication that actually prevents arguments
- Improve interaction with others
- Bring balance back into relationships with family, friends, employees, and employers
- Build intimacy without sacrificing your own identity
- Replace resentment with respect, so arguments give way to caring conversations, resolved problems, and truly intimate relationships
- Clear past issues that affect the present
Brief therapists often assign "homework" so clients use their vast strengths to resolve issues outside of therapy while fine tuning those skills learned in therapy sessions. Working in this way allows our sessions to be more effective and efficient for clients.
Length of Therapy
At the Birmingham Family Therapy Clinic, most clients report feeling more control over their situation after just one session. The average length of treatment is less than 6 months, and often our clients resolve their problems in less than 10 sessions.
