Family therapy, also known as family counseling, is a psychotherapy that evaluates and treats mental and emotional disorders within the context of marriage and family relationships. This approach focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening bonds by addressing issues affecting the entire family system rather than just individual members. Family therapists work to uncover patterns of behavior and communication that may contribute to stress and misunderstandings, guiding family members toward healthier ways of relating to each other. Through family therapy, individuals learn to support one another more effectively, creating a foundation of mutual respect, empathy, and resilience.
