Starting Family therapy

What is family therapy?

Family therapy helps families resolve conflicts and strengthen their relationships. It is led by qualified mental health professionals like psychologists, licensed professional counselors (LPCs), and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) who have extensive training in family dynamics and group communication.

How does family therapy work?

Thriveworks family therapists in Beverly Hills, MI usually begin by asking what everyone’s goals are for family counseling. Family members may need help with very specific issues or with general relationship functioning. But there are three main purposes in family counseling: to educate, to counsel, and to strengthen. Thriveworks also offers online family therapy and in-person services, so you may all meet in an office together or join a video call from your home depending on everyone’s location and availability.

What is the most effective family therapy?

The most effective form of Family therapy will often depend on the family itself, as there are many types of family therapy for therapists to use as they see fit in order to best meet the needs of their clients. However, one of the most commonly used types of family therapy is structural family therapy (SFT). SFT focuses specifically on family dynamics and interactions, looking at how they shape the relationships and structure present in the family. It can be effectively used to treat a variety of concerns.

How do I know if my family needs therapy?

This answer often looks different to each family that starts family therapy. However, some signs that your family might need to consider family counseling include frequent fights or misunderstandings, constant tension, experiencing loss, behavioral issues, marital issues, divorce, and blended family issues, among others.

What is included in family therapy?

In family therapy, therapists will often start by asking questions and assessing individual and family dynamics. From there, they may employ therapeutic techniques such as structured family therapy, CBT, strategic family therapy, and more depending on the present concerns and conflicts. From there, a therapist will work to open lines of communication between family members and facilitate emotional healing and growth.

What is the success rate of family therapy?

Family therapy can be incredibly successful, with some studies reporting a success rate of almost 90% for improving participants’ emotional and mental health, and around 66% for improving their physical health.

Is family therapy conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks therapists in Beverly Hills, MI offer both online family therapy and in-person family therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does family therapy last?

Family therapy is usually short term and solution-focused, with most families accomplishing their goals in 12 sessions or fewer. However, it can also last for longer if the probles at hand are more complex — and that’s okay, too.

Family Therapy in Birmingham, MI—Detroit Family Therapists and Counselors

There are times in a family’s life when disruption and turmoil take over where harmony once existed. The reasons are varied and many, though there are some common disruptions. For example, the siblings are no longer getting on. Or perhaps the parents and kids are not coping too well with an unpleasant divorce or separation. Forming a new family can be a huge challenge for many, too, and some are unable to adjust to the changes.

It is times like these when some parents reach out to family therapists for some much needed support and guidance. Third party support can help to instill a little equilibrium into the lives of families that have lost all hope. If you’re in the Detroit area looking for family therapy, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Birmingham.

Identifying Problems

Denial can be a modern day curse and cause more harm than good. No one likes to admit that they’re not coping too well with trying situations in the home. Yet the longer people ignore their problems the worse they tend to get. There is no shame in seeking help and support from qualified family counselors. Beverly Hills therapists have helped to restore peace and balance in lots of homes over the years. Some of the areas they work in include:

  • Alcohol, drug and other addictions
  • ADD/ADHD; anxiety issues
  • depression (bipolar disorder)
  • divorce and trial split ups
  • the complex range of eating disorders
  • and relationship issues between siblings and/or parents and their siblings

Growing apart can be a slow and often painful experience for all concerned. One of the main reasons why families go through the emotional wringer is because they are too proud to seek outside help. Experience shows that those who do reach out often get to save themselves months, if not years of unnecessary upset and turmoil.

I really needed someone to talk to and didn’t know where to turn. An internet search came up and I found Thriveworks. Best decision I ever made was calling to schedule an appt. The staff is friendly, respectful and discreet. I appreciate Thriveworks so much. Therapy has helped me tremendously. I highly recommended this place.

My overall experience has been as expected when dealing with behavior healthcare. There is no real care for the patient and their needs. I spent an hour on the phone with a call center rep from the billing department who said I had no insurance on file, then proceeded to transfer me to the correct department who said I did. I have been without medication that was prescribed on Monday. When I received a call back from the psychiatrist, it seemed that your company forgot to send it over. That is unacceptable behavior when it comes to dealing with any customer.

When I met with Jillian Kraydich I was in awe with her professionalism and exceptional bedside manor. Our meeting started on time and I felt comfortable right from the start. She was patient, understanding and overall a great help for me. She took the time to get to know me over the course of a few meetings and always allowed me to talk about whatever was on my mind without interruptions or judgement. I have spoken with a few other therapists in the past but they did not allow me to speak as freely as Jillian did. I would highly recommend her for the numerous reasons I stated above.
