Strengthen bonds, navigate challenges, and grow together as a family.
What is Family therapy?
When crisis hits, families don’t necessarily need a formal intervention, they need a competent professional to help them navigate the waters of addiction, affairs, mental illness and trauma. It helps to work with someone who has seen thousands of families through these situations.
Family therapy is more of an orientation than the number of people in the room. It is based on anthropology, sociology, the study of communication, systems theory and psychology. Family therapy is the leading discipline in the field with the most evidence-based outcomes.
People who really desire change can benefit from family therapy’s systemic, holistic approach that is designed to create change more readily than other therapeutic modalities.
