Family systems therapy is a holistic approach. In counseling, whether I am working with an individual, couple, family or group I am concerned with the long-term well being of both the individuals and their families. The unit of treatment isn’t just the individual; it is the set of relationships in which they are imbedded.

Family Systems counseling means that as a therapist keep in mind how the social environment of my client(s) interacts with the distress that may be present and with the healing process as counseling progresses.
