What Is Family Therapy Like?

Because there are so many reasons why you may be interested in seeking professional help, your therapist will craft a unique plan of action that is specific to you and your loved ones. Together, you will learn how to work together, resolve issues, and communicate more effectively. For example:

• You can learn how to better express to your sister why it upsets you that she hasn’t helped out with your sick did. You might also learn that your sister is dealing with other issues in her personal life and that’s why she’s been absent.
• Your mom can learn how to manage her stress and properly ask for help when she needs it.
• You and your husband can learn compromising techniques to implement with your sons who bicker. They may even work out some of their unresolved issues during therapy as well.
• Lastly, you and your husband can work out a plan of action when it comes to upkeep with the house. Your therapist can help you express why you’d like your husband to take a small step back from work to help out more at home.
