Family Therapy

Family therapy sessions, led by a skilled therapist, are designed to cultivate stronger connections among individuals within a family unit, both as individuals and as a collective.

At The Couch in Fort Smith, Arkansas, individuals undergoing treatment have the opportunity to participate in family therapy sessions. The term 'family' is inclusive of parents, siblings, children, and other significant individuals, such as close friends, and the individual in treatment retains the autonomy to decide who they want to involve in these sessions.

Do We Need Family Therapy?

The primary objective of family therapy is to provide family members with a deeper understanding of their loved one's mental health condition. This involves gaining insights into its origins, symptoms, and manageable manifestations.

By fostering such understanding, family therapy aims to alleviate misunderstandings and frustrations within the family dynamic while empowering the individual in treatment to receive more effective support. The frequency of these sessions may vary based on the individual's needs and the guidelines set by the mental health facility.
