Family & Systemic Therapy

Frequently asked questions:

When can systemic therapy help you? For the need of systemic family therapy, it is good to meet 3 general conditions:

• The symptoms of the disease and problem behavior last chronically, at least 3 months
• Previous treatment or educational measures have failed or proved ineffective
• The symptoms have serious consequences for the immediate social environment, both family and work

What is systemic therapy?

Systemic therapy is a type of therapy that involves all members of a particular system. The most common example of a system is the family, where therapists help all members of that family accomplish their problems and understand how each individual affects the system. Systemic therapy is conducted by a system of sessions with a therapist, who helps the family to understand its problems and create a plan that will lead to a better functioning home environment.

What is the goal of systemic therapy?

The goal of systemic therapy is to support or enable the positive development of a given system, such as a family. The goal is to help each family member communicate better with other family members and to encourage change in their relationships so that each member is doing better.

Why systemic therapy?

As children grow, the family inevitably changes. In this process it is very likely that the family system will encounter some problems in managing the stages of development. If this system needs to make conversations to help prevent these problems, systemic therapy may be the right choice.

What kinds of problems can systemic therapy help solve?

The therapist can help members of any system to cope with life changes that may affect the family unit. They can help the family to deal with chronic illnesses, psychosomatic disorders, periods of separation, grief, family development, work and school stress, but also ADHD, eating disorders, addictions and many others. The therapist will help family members understand each other during periods of stress and support the development of relationships between family members.

What does such a session look like?

A typical session will ideally include all members of the system and will last about an hour and a half. During this time, the therapist will ask various questions, listen to each member of the family, and help the family to communicate together. It is definitely not a question of looking for the culprits or black sheep of the family who are responsible for everything.
