What to Expect and Goals for Family Counseling
Family counseling is meant to open lines of communication and soothe hurt feelings. But if you don’t know what to expect from your first session, you may worry about getting the opposite effect.
At Neal Psychological Specialties, we want you to experience hope every step of the way. To ensure you feel confident and prepared for your first family session, we’ve outlined everything you can expect from our time together.
Some families choose counseling because they’ve been struggling for a long time. Others turn to therapy because they are facing sudden and unexpected challenges. Whatever the reason, meeting with a therapist can help you and your loved ones overcome painful or uncomfortable issues.
In fact, according to the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, most families who attend counseling report positive results. But if you’ve never been, you may wonder what exactly happens during a family counseling session. At NPS, we work with families to reach the following goals.
