Question 1

What happens in family therapy?

Accepted Answer

If your family is new to therapy, it helps to know what you are signing up for. It depends on the therapist and on who is coming, so the clearest way to find out is to ask the person you are considering. A licensed therapist can explain how they set goals with a family. On Alma, you can browse therapists in Burbank who work with families.

Who needs to attend family therapy?
