People seek out marriage and family therapy when they are faced with challenges in their
relationships, raising children, and problems involving extended family and friends. Adopting a
relationship perspective, family therapists do not negate the significance of individual intra-psychic
processes. Rather, they take the view that individual behavior is better understood within the context
of human relationships, or the family social system.
In a survey of clients from 526 marriage and family therapists:
98% rated services good or excellent
97% got the kind of help they desired
91% were satisfied with the amount of help they received
93% said they were helped in dealing more effectively with problems
97% would recommend their therapist to a friend
97% were generally satisfied with the service they received
63% reported improved physical health
74% indicated improvement in children’s behavior
59% showed improvement in children’s school performance
If you are currently experiencing a challenging situation with your immediate, or extended, family it
might be worth considering the kind of professional support marriage and family counseling can
provide.
