Family and relationships are the foundation for community.
Family interactions and conflict can also contribute to many individual struggles. With guidance, family relationships can be a source of support, fulfillment, and happiness. Whether you’re coming to therapy as a family, or with your parent or child, chances are you’re hopeful that you can deepen your relationships and improve your overall family cohesion.
Like individuals, each family has its own life cycle which goes through different ebbs and flows and phases.
Some common family-related issues are:
- Changing family structure
- Blended family issues
- Divorced family issues
- Co-parenting
- Communication difficulties
- Individual transitions & impact on family
- Parent/child relationships
- Adjustments to changing individual needs
- Extended family conflict
- Boundary-setting
