Family Therapy
Deliver Telehealth sessions through the portal or use a 3rd party provider.
Overview
Family therapy is incredibly beneficial when a family has a loved one struggling with addiction. It provides a safe and structured environment for family members to openly communicate and address the challenges they face collectively. Addiction often affects not only the individual struggling, but also the entire family unit, leading to strained relationships, mistrust, and emotional turmoil. Through family therapy, participants can gain a deeper understanding of addiction as a disease, learn effective coping strategies, and develop healthier communication skills.
