Family Therapy in Perry Georgia.
What in the world is family therapy, anyway? And when would someone need to come to family therapy?
Let’s start with what family therapy isn’t. Family therapy isn’t about bringing in the “problem child” to get “fixed” so that there is more peace in the home. It isn’t about passing the talking stick back and forth so that everyone gets an opportunity to complain about one another uninterrupted.
People come to family therapy for a variety of reasons. Maybe there has been a lot of tension or arguing lately. Maybe you don’t remember the last time that you had a good day in your home. There could be lots of tears, arguing, or even everyone is pretending to like each other and get along but it’s JUST SO FAKE. There could have been a change such as a marriage, separation or divorce, birth of a new child, or a new medical diagnosis. Usually, it is something that has recently caused a disruption in the home, but it can also be a chronic problem that finally came to a breaking point.
Family therapy is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on helping families get along better. It can involve a parent and child, siblings, or even the entire extended family. Our family therapists will help you improve communication with one another, strengthen your relationships, and will help you clarify your thoughts and feelings so that everyone is understood. They will help you to get “unstuck” in situations that seem hopeless.
What Should I Expect from Family Counseling?
Your first couple of visits to our Perry counseling office will focus on allowing everyone to share their thoughts on why you are there and what you wish to achieve. Our family therapists will help you create a plan or roadmap to help you reach your goals.
Therapy works best when everyone is open and honest and willing to participate. It can be a short-term process (8-12 sessions) with long-term changes depending on your goals and level of involvement.
