Family therapy helps families resolve conflicts and strengthen their relationships. It is led by qualified mental health professionals like psychologists, licensed professional counselors (LPCs), and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) who have extensive training in family dynamics and group communication.
Thriveworks family therapists in Dallas, TX usually begin by asking what everyone’s goals are for family counseling. Family members may need help with very specific issues or with general relationship functioning. But there are three main purposes in family counseling: to educate, to counsel, and to strengthen. Thriveworks also offers online family therapy and in-person services, so you may all meet in an office together or join a video call from your home depending on everyone’s location and availability.
The most effective form of Family therapy will often depend on the family itself, as there are many types of family therapy for therapists to use as they see fit in order to best meet the needs of their clients. However, one of the most commonly used types of family therapy is structural family therapy (SFT). SFT focuses specifically on family dynamics and interactions, looking at how they shape the relationships and structure present in the family. It can be effectively used to treat a variety of concerns.
This answer often looks different to each family that starts family therapy. However, some signs that your family might need to consider family counseling include frequent fights or misunderstandings, constant tension, experiencing loss, behavioral issues, marital issues, divorce, and blended family issues, among others.
In family therapy, therapists will often start by asking questions and assessing individual and family dynamics. From there, they may employ therapeutic techniques such as structured family therapy, CBT, strategic family therapy, and more depending on the present concerns and conflicts. From there, a therapist will work to open lines of communication between family members and facilitate emotional healing and growth.
Family therapy can be incredibly successful, with some studies reporting a success rate of almost 90% for improving participants’ emotional and mental health, and around 66% for improving their physical health.
Thriveworks therapists in Dallas, TX offer both online family therapy and in-person family therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Family therapy is usually short term and solution-focused, with most families accomplishing their goals in 12 sessions or fewer. However, it can also last for longer if the probles at hand are more complex — and that’s okay, too.
If you think the relationships with your family members could use some work, consider family therapy at Thriveworks Counseling in Dallas, TX. If you’re ready to get started, simply call or schedule online today.
Family therapy utilizes therapeutic techniques such as traditional talk therapy, narrative therapy, art therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and more. Depending on who is attending a particular session and the topics being discussed, your Thriveworks counselor might shuffle through various methods.
That being said, family therapy helps families to improve their communication skills, deepen connections with one another, and reach a healthier place in their relationships. If this sounds like something that you might benefit from, Thriveworks in Dallas is here to help.
As briefly mentioned before, we understand that your family issues are unique to you. Maybe your kids won’t stop fighting over little things. Or perhaps your parents have poor communication skills and they struggle to connect with you on a deeper level. Regardless of what you’re going through, you can find great reward in working with a family therapist.
