WHAT IS FAMILY THERAPY?

 

Family Therapy provides an opportunity for each person to have a voice with the hope of creating a greater sense of understanding. It focuses on interpersonal or intimate relationships within groups or families while helping to identify relationships and/or individual problems which may be caused or exist within the family unit.

How Can I Help You through Family Therapy?

·      I can help you understand and make sense of those patterns of behaviour specific to your family/group and where they have come from.

·      My role is to assist you in creating alternative behaviours in order to facilitate a positive shift in individual and family ways of being.

·      I remain neutral within the counselling process by not taking sides or placing blame on individuals and endeavour to facilitate positive conversations through tools that will allow for a better appreciation and understanding of each other’s experience.

·      I can assist in identifying conflicts and anxieties and help you develop strategies to resolve these in a positive and respectful manner.

Family Therapy Can Be Particularly Helpful When Working With:-

  • Couples and Relationship Issues
  • Child and Adolescent Mental Help Issues
  • Adult Mental Health
  • Self harm
  • Drug and Alcohol Misuse
  • Pregnancy – Planned and Unplanned
  • Parenting issues
  • Separation or Divorce
  • Blended Families
  • Mediation
  • Domestic Violence and Abuse
  • The Effects of Trauma
Do  Family Therapists Only Work With Families?

A Family Therapist sometimes will also see children and adults individually and/or within the family member group.  These groups may differ according to culture and individual interpretation of family/groups.
