Identification of these areas can impact stressors related to our interpersonal relationships, family relationships, professional careers and any other areas that may make you feel inadequate or "stuck.
Effective therapy requires a dynamic approach which is unique to every individual. Therapy should not be a "one size fits all" model. Gaining insight and having a deeper understanding of how your biological, sociological and psychological makeup (from birth to present day) has impacted you and how you specifically operate in this world can provide growth and change in many different areas of life. Having the ability to identify where our specific thoughts, beliefs, feelings, emotions, perceptions and patterns stem from and can significantly reduce areas that are impairing your overall quality of everyday life.

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.
