Family therapy is rooted in the belief that what is happening to one member of the family system will have an impact on others in the family unit. Our clinical psychologists believe in the importance of a collaborative approach to figure out what is not working in your family and why. Family therapy provides an opportunity for all family members to come together and work through problems that are interfering with happiness in the
home.
Family therapy treatment approaches may include:
- Practicing healthy communication skills
- Improving family interactions and routines
- Identifying and resolving family conflicts
- Learning effective ways to cope with stressors
Specific difficulties that may be addressed through family therapy include:
- Resolving conflict between parents and children/teens
- Managing anger more effectively
- Adjusting to family changes, such as birth of a sibling
- Dealing with divorce and separation
- Reducing depression and anxiety
- Coping with stress
- Handling parenting challenges
- Coping with grief and loss
