What To Expect

Before attending meetings with your whole family, I take the time to spend at least two hours with each individual family member first. It is important to me that each family member knows they have an objective third-party ally in the room with them on the day we gather. While I do not work as your family therapist, I strongly utilize my background in mental health in order to serve the needs of each family member and can remain mindful of unique mental health needs when necessary.

No two family meetings are the same. After completing interviews, I curate a family meeting agenda based on the unique needs of the family. This agenda is reviewed with the family prior to the meeting day to ensure these needs are being met.

Families who work with me are generally small (10 members or less) and are in the early stages of gaining curiosity around the benefits of family meetings. I offer education around the benefits of family meetings so that buy-in can be achieved by all members. I also assist in family/individual values development and conflict resolution tools.

The Family Forum

Do you have experience with YPO or other organizations that follow a forum model? I have created a protocol that families can use so that they can achieve increased long-term closeness while also creating a balance between business and personal family enterprise discussion. Families who have created family forums with me have reported significantly improved communication and conflict resolution skills over time. The family forum process is for families who hope to meet at regular intervals throughout the year.
