Have you wondered about your partner's reluctance to seek therapy? Perhaps you've approached him with a sincere, "Let’s try couples or family therapy. Something’s not right," only to be met with a bewildered look of confusion and indifference. Women often connect emotionally over coffee with girlfriends; men tend to bond through shared experiences, like watching sports. Navigating the growing pains of the language school of love and the different dialects of each other's hearts fluently is a natural part of a couple's life's journey, and this can also, undoubtedly, serve as a strain on the relationship. But you are not alone!

For many in their middle and later years rather than prosperity and pleasure, there is depression, anxiety and specifically personal losses in terms of children, parents, family and friends. If that is where you are, I would consider it a privilege to use my years of experience as a professor and a psychologist to help you move, process and hopefully, change that narrative. I have trained with David Burns, the author of “Feeling Good” and “Feeling Great” which is a proven Cognitive Behavorial approach to these types of challenges.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
