Family therapy is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on treating family relationships and interactions. It involves counseling sessions with all members of the family, aimed at improving communication, resolving conflicts, and promoting overall emotional health and well-being. The goal of family therapy is to help families identify and change dysfunctional patterns of behavior that may be causing problems in their relationships or individual member's mental health. Family therapists believe that the family system as a whole can contribute to an individual’s psychological issues, and by addressing the family dynamics, they can improve overall functioning.
