The delicate equilibrium of a family system is easily disturbed by changes or stressors such as a new baby, illness, psychiatric diagnosis, loss of job, problems in school, infidelity, aging, and death. Each member’s experience can influence the whole system.
If you are experiencing problems in your family that you can’t seem to solve alone, Behavioral Family Therapy may be able to help. In therapy, you can learn to recognize your role in the family as well as the role of other family members. Therapy can help you understand how each member is contributing to the problems and what needs to change in order to create a new equilibrium.
The good news is, our NYC therapists can help. New York Behavioral Health therapists use evidence-based practices. Since we use scientifically supported treatments for family issues, there is good reason to believe your family’s problems can begin to improve very soon.
Families are often complex systems of relationships where parents, children, siblings, and extended family members experience a variety of symptoms.
Any individual family member’s pathology can have a major impact on the entire system. Likewise the system’s characteristics, in terms of feedback loops and general patterns has likely contributed to the development and maintenance of each members’ behavior.
Behavioral Family Therapy treats the entire system with comprehensive assessment and intervention. The entire family is understood from the perspective of each member’s goals, motivations, cognitive patterns, emotional experience, and behavioral strengths and weaknesses.
As interventions are made at each level, the overall system is monitored for change. Many problems develop “naturally” but acute stressors may include changes or transitions in a family business, an addition to the family, diagnosis of a developmental disorder in a child, an eating disorder diagnosis, discovery of infidelity, substance use disorders, or decisions related to an aging parent.
Customized treatment planning for each family is possible through our thorough approach to ongoing assessment.
