HOME believes no individual is “the” problem, yet painful behavior is a real thing, creates harm, and is passed from generation to generation—we encourage cycle-breaking:

• We guide family members to understand their trajectories and stories so they can stop over-identifying with a role they play and soften the limiting narratives they perpetuate.
• We know families flourish when actions align with words, transparency triumphs over secrets, and belonging transcends isolation.
• We see humans as complicated and flawed, beautiful and inspiring; families as nuanced and nourishing, complicated and evolving.
• We believe healing happens when woundedness and points of conflict are compassionately explored instead of using over-simplified perspectives to describe complex, layered relational dynamics.
• We do not believe in weaponizing labels to keep people compartmentalized, assigning roles like villain or hero, or choosing estrangement as conflict resolution.

HOME is an antidote to the disconnected narratives that can occur when people only engage in individual therapy

• We know parallel processes are key. Families thrive when everyone does the work, and connection is deeply honored. This belief is in contrast to our world, which promotes intense individualism and self-sufficiency. What is needed, instead, is leisurely connection.
  • This occurs when we take being present seriously, honor the collective wellbeing of a family, and nurture the healing of each individual.
  • Our individual thriving is linked to our relational thriving.

• We believe that if there is no therapeutic orchestration of family healing and the focus is only on the individual, it is too easy for skewed narratives to become even more strongly entrenched and for relationships to suffer from disconnection.
  • Our focus is on helping everyone feel heard, seen, and understood.
  • We believe in transforming perspectives so they are alchemized.
  • We encourage the families with whom we work not to be complicit in the very thing they say they do not want. In this way, we help family members to be empathetic and to embed accountability; this avoids complicity.

• We do not subscribe to quick fixes, life-hacks, or self-help slogans. We are therapeutic guides focused on creating sustainable transformation that influences legacy.
  • We slow down and respect the pace of the family, and each individual, while encouraging and teaching, guiding and inspiring.

• We provide therapeutic consulting when practical steps are needed and logistics are required to solve mental health or addictive challenges.
  • We are masterful collaborators and invest in relationships with other world-class providers of care so that we can confidently provide referrals to higher levels of care when, and if, necessary.
  • We weave together meaningful insights with psychoeducation and coaching; we provide practical tips and real-time, in-the-moment support to help those we serve navigate the messy, painful, demanding, uncertain, and hurtful moments and inflection points.

• We can not be human alone.
  • We exist to bring ourselves and others into deeper connection. This type of nourishing connection happens as a result of talking about what is not being talked about, finding your pace when it comes to being vulnerable, and choosing courage over comfort.
  • We ask parents to take the lead in repairing by taking accountability, providing open hearts, and seeing their healing as medicine for the whole family.
  • We invite adult children to stop pretending and performing, to become who they are designed to be, and to stop hustling for approval.
  • We help to create new ways of being that honor and heal both the individual “I” and familial “we.”

HOME believes in birthing a new legacy: intergenerational health grounded in relational, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing is the inheritance that truly matters

• We encourage saying “yes” to a new family vision, co-created by each member, that welcomes wisdom and wholeness.
• We believe humans are not here to repeat the intergenerational story but to recalibrate and rewrite it—to be the path into a more expansive, embodied way of loving.
• We believe the greatest gift parents can give their children is to heal themselves so progeny does not have to carry the unhealed wounds of previous generations.
  • It is a privilege to be the ones who free future generations and endow them with a legacy of being a part of a flourishing, joyful, empathetic, purposeful family.
