Who needs Family Therapy?

​

  • If you want to understand and solve your presenting issues and make positive changes.
     

  • If you want to rediscover the fundamental interconnectedness among your family members or other significant others.
     

  • If you want to look at the family structure, the relationship with other social systems, and to find a different way out.

 

Goals of Family Therapy

​

  • Helps you solve your problems from the systemic view
     

  • Helps you explore your personal cognition, family dynamics, the interpersonal relationship among members as well as the influence from the larger system.
     

  • Helps you rediscover and activate resources in the family and open up for new possibilities.

​

Examples of Presenting Problems
 

  • My 8-year-old son has heated temper.  He always fights with his brother.
     

  • My daughter refuses to listen to me.  Every time when I ask her to stop playing and do homework, she runs to my wife. 
     

  • My husband has an external marital affair and I am very depressed.
     

  • My 10-year-old daughter always quarrels with her step-father and she does not tell me how she feels.
     

  • My elder teenager idles at home playing computer and refuses to go to school.
     

  • I can’t get along with my mother-in-law and feel my husband does not support me.
     

  • I don’t have any motivation to work or meet friends after my mother died.

If you relate to the above situations or have similar experiences, you are welcome to make an appointment with our therapists.
