    What is family counseling?

    Portland is fortunate to have some really fine counselors. Family therapists view the family as a system in which each family member plays a role. These therapists emphasize the dynamics within this system rather than viewing family issues as being caused by a single person. Therapists who offer family counseling in Portland, Oregon may bring entire families together for therapy sessions or they may ask to see family members individually. If you are seeking family counseling in Portland for a child who is acting out, your counselor may decide to work with the whole family to help identify patterns that contribute to this problem as well as working with the child individually.

     

    What's involved in family counseling?

    Portland, Oregon has many family therapists who would like to help your family develop effective means of handling problems. Family therapy will help your family identify its strengths as well as areas that need improvement. During counseling sessions, you and your family members will examine how you express thoughts and emotions, solve problems together, and support one another. By learning about family roles and rules, you will discover patterns of interactions that don't work and learn to modify them. To find a family therapist, look for someone who is a member of the AAMFT (American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy) or who is licensed by the state of Texas as a LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist).
