What a family therapist does, and who comes to the sessions
Everyone on this page describes their work as family or systemic therapy. Family therapy helps people in close relationships understand and support each other. It works with the relationships between people, not with one person alone.
Family here means whoever those involved count as family. Sessions usually have more than one person in the room.
A therapist may also meet members on their own. Ask a practitioner who they would want in the room.
If you are afraid of someone in your family, say so to the practitioner before any joint session is booked. Ask to be seen on your own first.
What this page filters on
These are the only filters: the specialism recorded as Addiction and the professional title family therapist.
