Family Therapy
Family therapy is a form of psychotherapy that addresses the relationships and dynamics within a family.
It focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening emotional bonds. Rather than treating an individual in isolation, family therapy views the family as an interconnected system where changes in one member’s behavior can affect the entire group.
