Chicago Family Therapy

Family therapy is used to address problems within the family dynamic or within a relationship. Chicago couples who have children often seek family therapy as a way of preventing relationship problems from affecting their children's lives, or to ease the transition into a new step-family In addition, parents may seek assistance when a child is overly rebellious, depressed, anxious, or aggressive.

Some of the most common specific reasons for seeking family therapy include eating disorders, substance abuse and infidelity. Serious as these problems can be, many who come to Chicago family therapy are surprised to learn that treatment is often of a relatively short-term nature. According to the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, the average family therapy treatment involves 12 sessions. However, in many cases, follow-up sessions are a good idea.
