Family therapy, also known as family counseling, is a type of psychological counseling that helps family members improve communication and resolve conflicts. It can involve all family members or just those able or willing to participate. The goal is to create a better understanding among family members, promote empathy, and facilitate cooperative problem-solving.

Benefits of Family Therapy:

• Improved communication skills

• Strengthened family bonds

• Enhanced problem-solving abilities

• Greater understanding and empathy

• Conflict resolution

• Support during life transitions

Our Approach

Our therapists employ evidence-based practices tailored to your family's needs. We draw from various therapeutic models, such as:

• Structural Family Therapy: Focuses on adjusting and strengthening the family system to ensure each member can interact effectively.

• Strategic Family Therapy: Involves developing strategies to address specific problems and improve family interactions.

• Systemic Family Therapy: Looks at family issues in the context of wider social systems and relationships.

Each session is designed to be a safe space where all family members can express their thoughts and feelings without judgment.

What to Expect in a Session

A typical family therapy session lasts about 50 minutes to an hour. Our therapists will guide you through conversations that help uncover underlying issues and explore ways to resolve them. Sessions are collaborative, with the therapist acting as a facilitator to enhance family communication and problem-solving.

How to Prepare:

• Be open and honest about your feelings and experiences.

• Be willing to listen to other family members' perspectives.

• Be prepared to work together towards common goals.
