In family counseling, commonly referred to as family therapy, you and some or all of your family members will work with a therapist to examine your family’s dynamics, communication, and ability to solve problems. Your therapist will help you identify issues that contribute to conflict, which may include family rules, roles, parenting disagreements and behavioral patterns. Your family will learn to work through these issues in order to improve family functioning. Family therapy will not only focus on the problems that the family is dealing with, but will also build on the strengths of individual members and the family system. In family counseling, the focus of treatment isn’t just the person, it is the set of relationships in which the person is embedded.
