Therapy can be with any group of people and can be with different members of a family or group. We work with family members who want to support others. There are also many individuals who have found systemic therapy helpful when they want to understand or improve their relationships with other family members or when there have been experiences they would like to explore and understand.
Our Expertise
Research shows that Family Therapy can be helpful in a wide range of situations and life challenges. Many families find support helpful in endeavouring to improve communication with loved ones or with building closer relationships. Family therapy helps family members to work together when something is hurting, difficult or feels overwhelming or when it is difficult to change harmful behaviour.
Some of the difficulties families regularly access family therapy for include:
- Adjustment to major life events
- ASD and ADHD diagnoses
- Challenges from mental and physical health diagnoses
- Communication difficulties
- Eating disorders
- Estrangement from family
- Parenting
- Separation, loss, and bereavement
- Step-parenting
- Substance abuse
- Trauma
On occasion it may be considered more effective to have two co-therapists working with you and your family. Upon reviewing your referral information our team will advise you if this may be helpful for you.
