Grow Together

Clinically reviewed by Alice May, MSW, LSW

Family therapy helps provide all family members with the support and tools to navigate difficult experiences and transitions. Family therapy works to empower each member to be part of the solution. Mind Body Co-op psychotherapists have experience working with families at varying stages dealing with a variety of issues.

Family therapy can help improve relationships with partners, children, and other family members.

“Get the Family Support you need.”

Our Family therapists will begin the process by identifying the issues that are causing problems in your family. They will work with you to formulate a plan of treatment, and propose ways to meet the treatment goals you set.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can family therapy help with?

Family therapy can help with behavioral issues, caregiver stress, eating disorders, grief and loss, infertility, life transitions, mental illness, perinatal and postpartum concerns, OCD, separation or divorce, and substance use. It also helps with conflict involving partners, children and extended family.
