Family Therapy has benefits beyond the individual because it allows for each member to bring their strength to each session and to have imput where the environment is safe. Ina family session, members have the safety to say what they want others to hear, with the trust that the family will use the information shared as tools, not weapans (including outside the sessions). The effective and healthy communication skills (i.e., active listening, paraphrasing, empathy, support) developed and used in family therapy is generalized to home and community. As the family communicates more effectively, conflicts are reduced and self-worth and trust can be re-established and increase the quality of life.

Most family therapists inadvertently create more chaos through their well-intentioned efforts to assist a family move through a change process. Why? Brains are inherently deregulated (all of us, may I add) and most talking and dialoguing misses brain-centric problems that need more intensive help. Many times the emotional trauma created by years of solving problems ineffectively can wreak havoc on the brain's parasympathetic nervous system, not ever giving the family a break from flight or fight thinking.
