Family Systems Therapy

Reviving family connection.


 What is Family Systems Therapy?

Family systems therapy is a mode of psychotherapy that aids people in resolving their problems in the context of their family unit. Typically, problems begin in the family. We approach conflict by viewing the family as a whole and identifying how each member interacts with one another to form a unique family dynamic. Each family member will work collectively and individually to understand this group dynamic, the effects of individual actions, and patterns that often surface.

To accomplish this, family members will take turns meeting together and individually to attempt to support one or more family members experiencing emotional challenges. Role switching will allow family members to increase understanding and support by developing an understanding of how members can better support one another. Most vitally, each member will process, express, and share their thoughts and feelings to attempt to devise goals to remedy them. Marriage and Family Focus can support dysfunctional family patterns with family systems therapy to revive family connection and establish a healthy family system.
