Family Therapy
Dr. Segal provides family therapy that focuses on the dynamics and interactions within a family system. Unlike individual therapy, family therapy views problems and solutions in the context of the family unit, considering how each family member's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors contribute to the overall family dynamic. The primary goal is to improve communication, understanding, and relationships among family members.
In family therapy sessions, Dr. Segal works with the entire family or specific family members to identify and address issues such as communication breakdowns, conflict, roles within the family, and various stressors affecting the family system. Dr. Segal facilitates open and honest discussions, helps family members express their feelings, and encourages collaboration in finding solutions. Family therapy often utilizes systemic interventions, emphasizing the interconnectedness of family members and the impact of each individual on the family as a whole.
Family therapy is effective for addressing a wide range of concerns, including but not limited to, relationship conflicts, parenting challenges, mental health issues, grief, and major life transitions. By fostering a supportive and understanding environment, family therapy aims to strengthen relationships, improve coping mechanisms, and promote the overall well-being of the family unit.
