Family therapy

    

Family therapy focuses on addressing issues within the context of family dynamics and relationships.  It addresses a wide range of issues that can affect family functioning. These may include communication problems, conflicts, parenting challenges, marital or relationship difficulties, substance abuse, mental health issues, grief and loss, blended family adjustments, and major life transitions. 


Simon helps identify and explore the underlying causes of these issues and works with the family to develop strategies for resolution and improve the functioning of the family as a unit and as individuals.


An initial appointment is generally made with Simon by one or two family members to discuss the situation and to determine whether family therapy is suitable.  If the family proceeds with family therapy,  Simon sees each family member individually first to ensure he understands the situation and issues and how they affect each family member. Once all family members have attended an individual session, a family therapy session is arranged (session is for 2 hours).


Common reasons people may seek family therapy include:

 

  • Separation, divorce and step and blended family issues
  • Child and adolescent behavioural or emotional difficulties
  • Resolving relationship issues between parents and adult children
  • Child and adolescent mental health issues
  • Parenting issues
  • Reducing family conflict
  • Illness and disability in the family
  • Self-harm
  • Drug and alcohol misuse
  • Trauma or major family relationship changes (death of a family member).



Simon helps families explore issues together, understand each other's perspectives, find common ground and practical ways to reduce conflict and move forward.


Support is tailored to your family's unique needs, with a focus on collaboration and positive change.
