Family
Therapy

Family therapy is a form of therapy designed to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships within a family unit. It can involve parents and children, siblings, or any combination of family members facing challenges. Here's a simplified breakdown of the process:

​

• Building a Safe Space: We create a safe and supportive environment where all family members feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions openly.

​

• Understanding Family Dynamics: We observe interaction patterns within the family to identify unhealthy communication styles or dynamics that may be contributing to problems.

​

• Shifting Focus: Family therapy often shifts the focus from individual blame to understanding how family members influence each other's behavior. This promotes collaborative problem-solving.

​

• Improving Communication Skills: We teach communication skills like active listening, expressing needs assertively, and resolving conflict constructively. This fosters a more respectful and understanding family environment.

​

• Goal-Oriented & Collaborative: Similar to other therapies, family therapy is goal-oriented and collaborative. We work with all family members to establish shared goals and develop a treatment plan that addresses everyone's needs.
