Family Therapy Online in Louisiana—Work with a Family Counselor, Therapist

They are the ones who know how to push your buttons the most but support you when you need it and give you unconditional love even when it gets tough. Or maybe they were not there for you in times of need and don’t accept you for who you are. You know who we are talking about. Family. Every person’s family is different in how they react, communicate, fight, love, and support one another. Some families have a harder time getting along than others, and that is normal! Most families, if not all, go through trials and tribulations throughout the years. Consider these scenarios:

• You are visiting your family for an extended weekend and your parents start arguing with you over the trajectory of your life. Maybe they expect you to be married and settled down by now, maybe they don’t support your job choice, or maybe they are upset that you got a new tattoo.
• You and your sibling are arguing because they will not stop taking advantage of your parents. You are tired of them being babied as an adult.
• Your aunt is struggling with addiction and it’s causing you a lot of mental strain. She is living with you and your parents right now because she can’t afford to be on her own.

Maybe you are not experiencing one of these situations, but you are going through something else with your family right now that you can’t handle on your own. At Thriveworks Louisiana Counseling, a team of family therapists is readily available to help you and your loved ones learn how to communicate better, resolve conflicts, and meet goals. If you are struggling with something and feel like you and your family could benefit from working with a professional, give Thriveworks Louisiana Counseling a try.

Problems Addressed in Family Therapy

As we briefly mentioned above, family therapy can help you and your loved ones work through a myriad of challenges. No matter how big or little you think your specific concern is, our therapists can provide you with the support and guidance you need. Common family problems that we help our clients address are:

• Mental illness, like anxiety or depression
• Financial strain or stress
• Addiction or substance abuse
• Parenting issues
• Behavioral problems in children
• Major life changes like moving to a new city or starting a new job
• Divorce or separation
• Communication issues
• Grief over the loss of a loved one

These are not the only issues our psychologists can help you work through. Our family therapists will do their best to help you hurdle obstacles and achieve the goals you have always wanted.

How Does Online Family Therapy Work?

The difference between in-person therapy and teletherapy is simple: it’s virtual! Thriveworks Louisiana Counseling offers teletherapy over the phone or through video chat. You and your family can discuss which option you think works best or try both.

When you begin family therapy, your counselor will assess each individual family member’s concerns before starting a treatment plan. It is essential to look at everyone’s unique challenges and goals to better understand the bigger issue and how to fix the cracks in your relationships. Once your family therapist gets to know everyone, they will customize a treatment plan based on your specific needs.

Family therapy is also often short-term meaning that families only need to attend around nine sessions. This may vary depending on the concerns at hand, but it is generally not an extensive process. Family therapy also varies in what is discussed each session depending on progress and which family members are in attendance. There are numerous methods to family counseling and if one method is not working for your family, there are many different things your therapist can try.
