Our family affects who we are and who we become, both for the better and for worse. We learn our vocabulary, our habits, our customs and rituals, and how to view and observe the world around us.

Anyone seeking healthier, closer family relationships can benefit from family therapy.

Common reasons for seeking family therapy include:

• Divorce
• Parent-child conflict
• Problems between siblings
• Domestic violence
• The unexpected or traumatic loss of a family member

Family therapy can help your family address various issues and heal past wounds. If any of the above scenarios resonate with your family, family therapy can help. Family therapy can be beneficial in many ways.

Some positive family therapy outcomes are:

• Strategies to develop and maintain boundaries
• Fostered sense of cohesion and communication among family members
• Promotes problem-solving through an understanding of family patterns and dynamics
• Builds empathy and understanding.
• Reduces family conflict

Studies show that family therapy is particularly helpful to families with members who struggle with substance abuse and other behavioral issues. When the whole family grows, each member is better off.
