Providers want to help stepfamilies but are seldom adequately trained. We often hear, "It is overwhelming", "It takes more energy to work with stepfamilies", "I am exhausted", and "I wish I could be of more help."

Strengthen Your Policies and Services with Expert Consultation
Serving stepfamilies is very different from serving other types of families. Stepfamily issues, family systems, and best practices are unique. Treating stepfamilies like original families can be like pouring gasoline on a fire. Stepfamily Services can assist you in identifying stepfamilies (many do not self-disclose) and updating your policies, programs, and practices to meet the needs of this distinct population.

There are many types of families, each with its own psychology and dynamics. Stepfamilies are the most diverse form of family due to their structure, intense emotional affect, and complex dynamics. Typically, counselors, coaches and family educators feel overwhelmed and confused when confronted with a stepfamily, stepcouple, or stepfamily member's issues. Stepfamily Services offers the advantage of training and experience.
