Family therapy assesses and treats the needs of the family system as a whole. It can help families to strengthen communication, redefine roles, and restore healthy boundaries in order to improve both individual and family functioning. Family therapy gives each family member a chance to share their view of the problem and ideas for a solution. It facilitates communication and helps each family member really listen to and hear what the other is saying. Family therapy is offered both in person and virtually.
