Family Therapy
Family therapy helps families and individuals work on problems in the context of the family system. Family members work together to resolve a problem that impacts one or more family members. In the initial visit with the provider, the family will work collaboratively with their provider to determine the goals of treatment. For our pediatric patients, our providers require family involvement on a weekly basis to ensure the best treatment outcomes for our pediatric patients. Families meet with their provider weekly until treatment goals have been reached. After that, it is common to meet less frequently for a few months as families become more comfortable and confident in using their new skills independently.
At The EBP, our providers work form a family centered, trauma informed, and identity affirming perspective. You are the expert on your own (or your child’s) life.
