Family Therapy Service
Family and Systemic Psychotherapy, or Family Therapy as it is known, supports those in close relationships to understand and support each other to make useful change. The aim of this therapy is to build on family resources and strengths to resolve difficulties through working together.
We can help at any stage of the family life cycle; those just starting out together with babies and young children, to adult families and all the configurations inbetween.
Family Therapy can help with most mental health, life event and wellbeing difficulties that children, young people, adults and family relationships may experience. This may involve changes for an individual, in parenting and family relationhips. We approach mental health and well being challenges from the central belief that we all live in systems, and a family is one such system. To recover individually or as a family, often the family system may need to support developing alternative understandings, and changes in relationships. Each family member has a valid and important part to play in change.
Your family will be receiving the service of two therapists who are working together as a team. Systemic Family Therapy is a well practised form of therapy in the NHS mental health services, a team approach is rare in private work.
