Therapy for couples and families
We understand that relationship and family dynamics can be complex, and challenges within the couple or family unit can impact the well-being of each member. Couples and Family Therapy can help.
Systemic Psychotherapy
Suitable for Individuals, Couples & Families
Our family therapy approach is designed to foster understanding, communication, and positive change.
What is Systemic Therapy?
Systemic therapy, also known as family therapy, is a collaborative approach that addresses the interactions, relationships, and dynamics within a couple or family. It recognises that individual behaviour and emotional well-being are interconnected with relational dynamics. Some of the difficulties we work with are mental health, eating difficulties, anger, behavioural issues, trauma, bereavement, adoption, separation, and divorce.
