Family Counseling Tucson
What is Family Counseling?
Family can provide love, a sense of belonging, and support. But at times, your relationship with your family becomes a challenge.
Still, knowing how to resolve conflict with your family might be very difficult. But, regardless of what you and your family are going through, family counseling in Tucson might be able to help.
At Marriage Counseling of Tucson, our counselors will assess your family dynamics and help you navigate those challenging discussions to become a healthy family unit again.
“My daughter went through her terrible teens and we only thought it would pass. But things got worse and as her parents we both had different opinions about what to do. We eventually decided to get family counseling to help solve the problem. During the sessions we learned a lot about each other and found out that she was part of bullying at school."
- Christina Van der Walt (Tucson North)
Reasons to Go to Family Counseling
Each family is unique, and the reasons to seek help are complex. Some families choose therapy after they reach an impasse and cannot resolve the problem themselves.
Furthermore, they might want to help identify the problems and develop strategies to avoid family intervention. Conflict can take place in different forms between family members.
A family counselor can spot several mental and conflict conditions that include:
- Anxiety and depression
- Alcohol or substance abuse
- Teen behavioral problems
- Conflict with parents
- Abuse
- Intimate partner violence
- Developmental disorders
While one member can cause conflict, the other family members also become entangled while attempting to help. At this time, it helps to consult a family counselor trained in family systems.
Our therapists focus on family interactions in which they exist. The counselor will identify behavior patterns and help rebuild resilience instead of focusing on the individual's negative habits.
