Family Counselling
Family therapy is designed to address specific issues affecting the health and functioning of a family. Its goals are to help everyone in the family understand and support each other, improve interactions, and address underlying issues.
Family therapy can help when:
There are overwhelming feelings within the family, for example sadness or anger.
The family is not sure how to move forward in a specific area, conflicts and issues.
The family seems to be experiencing repetitive feelings and/or behaviours.
A family is dealing with changes. For example, associated with illness, mental health or substance use problems, unemployment, moving, aging, divorce, trauma, or death.
A family is coping with transgenerational trauma.
A family is looking for improving in communications between family members.
Our Approach
In family therapy, the client is the family unit. The main purpose is to look further than each individual that makes up the family and focus on a holistic approach when facing challenges. In saying this family therapy is also a place for an unbiased perspective where all members of the family are heard and validated.
Among other forms of therapy, our counsellors practice:
Systemic therapy
Bowenian family therapy
Satir Model Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
