Family Therapy

The goal of family therapy is to explore restoring the loving connection between you. Often there turns out to be enough basis to stay in the family together. Sometimes family members also decide to go their separate ways. Family therapy then helps to part ways in a respectful way.

Every family is special but also has its own dynamics and less easy moments. For example, family life is a lot more complex now than it used to be. Parenting young or just older children combined with jobs, for example. Or dealing with parenting and exes within a blended family. These daily factors and interrelationships can put pressure on your family.

When you cannot manage these pressures well on your own and find it difficult to cope with them, family therapy can do a lot for your family. Family therapy focuses on the following for all of your family members:

  1. Patterns
  2. Behavior
  3. Emotions

During family therapy, you have space to share and explore your stories, experiences and emotions.

What are your stuck patterns and how do you communicate with each other?

How do you handle your own needs and those of other family members? What are your individual needs and peculiarities that you bring to the family? With these questions, we explore your individual and shared desires.

How does it work?

After a no-obligation introduction, we begin counseling with an intake interview. In doing so, it is important that there is a mutual “click” so that you feel safe to share your story, thoughts and emotions. Nothing is crazy, everyone is different and there are many ways relationships can work well again.

In the following sessions, we focus on the help request, patterns, goals and change desires. After the intake, four to eight sessions are already sufficient for lasting relationship improvement (one session lasts 75 minutes). After the intake, we evaluate the process and decide together whether to continue therapy.
