Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
Within any family there are many moving parts, and each members' experiences and struggles have an impact on the functioning of the whole family unit . This is both good news and bad news. The good news is change in one area, or in one member, impacts the family as a whole. The hard part is stepping out and finding a place to start - and I'm here to say, "it won't be as hard as it feels right now."
