Family Therapy

Family therapy or family counselling is a form of treatment that is designed to address specific issues affecting the health and functioning of a family.
 
It can be used to help a family through a difficult period, a major transition, or mental or behavioral health problems in family members. The goal of family therapy is to work together to heal the mental, emotional, or psychological problems that are negatively affecting your family life.

When and how to seek help

When it feels like the issues in your family are too big for you to handle and they aren’t getting better.

When one person’s problems are impacting other family members or, when the family is contributing to a person’s difficulties, it can be challenging to move forward without assigning blame or feeling guilt. If you are feeling overwhelmed, sad, and angry; when you’re unsure how to move forward; or when you feel like your family is repeating the same harmful behaviors over and over – it’s ok to ask for help.

Whatever your family needs help navigating, therapy can help you and your family reduce distress and conflict. By learning new coping skills and different strategies to solve problems – you can make life easier and happier for your entire family.
