Each month, we hear stories from families who discover hope, healing, or a small breakthrough in their lives through play or counseling. We invite you to reflect on a moment (big or small) that suprised you or brought you comfort.

If a recent experience at CCFAM has encouraged your family, we would love to hear from you. Your story may offer hope to another family taking their first steps toward support.

This holiday season took on new meaning as my husband and I prepare for our daughter’s wedding this spring. I entered this time with a bittersweet mix of joy and nostalgia, knowing these will be our last holiday moments as a family of three. One of the hardest things in parenting is keeping a long-term perspective in the midst of everyday stress. Yet the small, ordinary interactions we have with our children during seasons of transition are the very things that shape our relationship with them over time.

A question that has guided me both in my home and in the families I’ve had the privilege to work with is this: What kind of relationship do you want to have with your child when they are an adult? That single question helps pull us out of the urgency of the moment and back into the work of building connection, safety, and trust one day at a time. In our own family, a simple ritual has been a constant: asking, “What was your best today, and what was your worst?” It’s something we now share with our soon-to-be son-in-law, too.

In our most recent newsletter, CCFAM is highlighting four practice tools from our newest blog to help you nurture long-term, positive relationships in your family: https://ccfam.com/keeping-the-change-how-parents-help-make-family-counseling-work-long-after-the-session/

Find a moment at the end of the day when everyone has had a chance to eat and unwind. Have each family member answer: “What was your best and your worst today?”

When you start weaving a small practice like this everyday life, the whole feel of your home can shift. Little changes build real momentum and often spark a curiosity about what else is possible.

If this stirs something in you, there’s more to explore about how these tools can reshape the rhythm of your family: https://ccfam.com/counseling/for-children/family-play-therapy-with-children/.

These aren’t fancy therapy tricks! They’re just grounded, doable strategies that reinforce change and help relationships shift gradually but meaningfully.

Consistent Routines & Predictability
Younger kids and teens alike thrive when home feels stable. When routines for meals, bedtime, chores, or check-ins happen regularly, everyone relaxes a little more. Predictability helps build safety, making it easier to practice new ways of talking or listening.

Small Daily Moments of Connection
Where and how can you get 10 minutes of one-on-one time? Maybe it’s the drive to school, talking during a walk, reading together, or doing something fun without screens. These moments, though short, build trust. They make “I heard you” feel real.

Reflecting, Not Reacting
When conflict arises—a snappy comment, a slammed door—pause. Reflect on what just happened: “I saw you got upset when I spoke quickly.” Or “You’re angry because you were hoping to play right now.” These reflections (by parent or child) open space for understanding, not just defensiveness.

Using Shared Rituals to Reinforce Values
Rituals are shared habits: perhaps family dinners, gratitude moments, a weekly family check-in, or even a bedtime ritual where each person shares one thing they appreciated that day. These help anchor values like respect, kindness, forgiveness, and they matter.

Through play, children practice problem solving, explore emotions, build social skills, and strengthen connections with others.

Family play can support children struggling with difficult making friends, conflict at home or school, emotional outbursts, anxiety in new situations, grief and loss, life transitions, issues with attention or learning disabilities, and even the impact of trauma.

Question for you: How have you seen play make a difference for a child?

Our Story

The path that led to the creation of the Center for Counseling and Family Relationships (CCFAM) was similar to that of a client when they first seek counseling. It involved life circumstances (another practice where Dr. Johnson had worked for 8 years closing), taking a risk (getting all the needed elements of a business in place in 90 days), and being willing to adapt to change and growth in order to not only survive, but to thrive. CCFAM was founded in 2007 at 6612 N. Riverside Drive by Dr. Rhonda Johnson. Initially, CCFAM began with one counselor and one office staff member. The goal was to offer quality counseling that was affordable to the surrounding communities. As the number of clients seeking services began to multiply, Dr. Johnson became a supervisor for LPC-Interns and LMFT-Associates. By doing this, Dr. Johnson was able to employ the Interns/Associates, who offered low-cost counseling rates, and train them in their counseling careers. By 2010, CCFAM had outgrown its office space and moved to 3629 Western Center Blvd. In 2012, Dr. Johnson’s passion for supervision and ethical practice led to her creating a Board Certified LPC/LMFT Supervisor Training. What began as one training has evolved into many trainings on different topics to improve the skills of current and future generations of mental health professionals in the Metroplex and in the state of Texas. In 2014, we moved to our current location at 4500 Mercantile Plaza Ste. 307 to be able to house all of our services and trainings in one location. Through the years, CCFAM continued to expand to meet the needs of the clients we serve. Our mission is Healing, Empowering, Connecting, and Training from our team of employees, to our clients, to the professionals we train.
