Family Therapy

When families are under stress, for whatever reason, it is often the children who are most affected.

Seeing the children on their own does not address all the issues, however as parents need help and support to find better ways of managing difficult behaviour as well as learning how to take good care of themselves. Therefore, our work always involves both the parents and children in one way or another, and we often work in conjunction with other agencies.
