Relationships & Family
Whether between partners, parents and children, or within the broader family system, our closest relationships shape how we experience the world. In these clips, clinicians explore how attachment patterns affect communication, how small efforts rebuild trust, and how therapy can help people feel seen and connected again.
CATCH offers a range of free, accessible resources via their website (catchiscommunity.org), including parent groups, videos, and upcoming events. Dr. Lisa Novak highlights opportunities to volunteer and join the broader mission, emphasizing that community participation is central to how CATCH operates and grows.
Dr. Lisa Novak explains that resilience, in the CATCH framework, means equipping families to withstand life’s challenges—not just pushing kids to perform. The organization focuses on parents and caregivers through peer support groups, educational programming, and tools like Coping Kits—delivered at key school transition years—to shift focus from achievement to emotional readiness.
Dr. Lisa Novak introduces CATCH (Community Action Together for Children’s Health), a local nonprofit founded by Amy Oberholtzer to support parents raising emotionally resilient children. Born from a personal experience navigating mental health challenges in an achievement-focused culture, CATCH emerged to fill the gap in accessible resources for families in need.
Lisa Novak discusses how assessment helps patients and families become more aware of their internal experience—what’s happening and why. She explains how building that awareness can open up new options for coping and change.
Jason discusses why even committed, long-standing couples can struggle. Therapy helps partners identify unspoken needs and repair long-running patterns that have never been addressed.
This clip explores how small, intentional gestures—like a glance or a note—can create emotional safety and rebuild intimacy over time, especially when trust has been strained.
Jason highlights the power of curiosity in rebuilding connection. He describes how shifting from accusation to genuine wondering can soften conflict and open up new understanding between partners.
Jason Price explains how couples therapy provides a structured space where both partners can slow down, clarify what they need, and feel emotionally recognized—something that often gets lost in day-to-day conflict.
