Why this resource is helpful:

"Family therapy can be a powerful change agent in the dynamics between parents and children. Designed to identify and address issues affecting the healthy function of a family, therapy often addresses behavioral, emotional, and psychological issues within a family unit. A variety of therapies and modalities may be used including, but not limited to, family systems, narrative, and other forms of therapy.
Many issues within a family dynamic may be resolved through professional help. Some of the many reasons that families decide to seek counseling as a collective unit include:
Adapting to blended families
Adjusting to children becoming teenagers
Coping with health issues within the family
Coping with child behavioral issues
Dealing with addiction within the family
Deepening family bonds
Improving connection within the family
Improving communication problems
Learning about mental health and mood disorders within the family
Navigating divorce or separation
Significant changes affecting the whole family (death, loss, move, job/school change)
Supporting behavioral changes
There are many other reasons that families may decide that help from a professional counselor can help their family to grow healthier and happier together. Any family situation that is causing multiple or individual family members stress, grief, resentment, jealousy, conflict, or fear is a reason to consider therapy for your family."
