The Counselling & Family Centre - Family Counselling Service
Families can be a source of support, love, encouragement and joy. Sometimes however families are put under strain and family members can start to feel isolated, overlooked, upset and angry. Family counselling can also be useful for adult siblings and when there are splits and conflicts in any adult family relationships. You may be having difficulties with your grown up daughter or son. There may be problems with in-law relationships. Wherever help is needed the only criteria is that you are related to each other.
Family Counselling is very flexible, it has to be as every situation and every family is unique. Your Counsellor will work with you to plan future appointments or to guide you towards one of our other services if that seems more appropriate. Please note, when help is needed to resolve issues that are clearly couple problems and between adult sexual partners, married or unmarried, we will suggest a course of Couple Counselling with one of our specifically trained Couple Counsellors.
Family counselling deals with all stages of family life cycles:
-
Families with young children, arrival of a new baby
