Personal Statement

Kathleen Shack opened the private practice of Family Solutions Counseling, LLC in 2007. Prior to that, Kathleen counseled with couples, families, children and adults in a group private practice, inpatient children's hospital, and through intensive in-home counseling. The goal in counseling is to help individuals, couples and families "Minimize the Negative and Find Solutions". Helping couples and family members implement skills that will help them put one another first, be kind, loving and respectful to one another is a key premise.

Kathleen works to help individuals recognize that the way to find meaningful understanding and work through matters with one another is to listen to the perspectives of the other, articulate one's own perspectives, and find a way to validate and respect both.

She has over 20 years of experience working with couples, families, individuals, divorced families, blended families, same-sex couples and families, and children. If your partner tells you things aren’t going well, pay attention! Don’t dismiss their complaints. Don’t wait until it’s too late! Kathleen Shack can help you build a stronger relationship and friendship.
