Adolescent Family Therapy
Adolescent family therapy involves the entire family unit in addressing the mental health needs of adolescents. This therapeutic process focuses on the family context, helping family members understand their roles in supporting the adolescent’s emotional health and well-being. It incorporates various therapeutic approaches, such as structural family therapy, cognitive-behavioral family therapy, and attachment-based family therapy, to address specific challenges and family dynamics.
This type of therapy is especially beneficial for adolescents dealing with issues like teen depression, substance use issues, or identity struggles. By engaging the entire family, therapy aims to create healthier relationships, improve communication, and provide a safe space to address mental health symptoms and family issues.
