Frequently Asked Questions

What is Family Therapy, and how can it help?

Family Therapy, also known as Systemic Therapy, helps families improve communication, resolve conflicts, and support one another through challenges. It provides a safe space where all voices are heard equally, with a focus on building understanding and making positive changes within the family system.

Who can take part in Family Therapy?

Family Therapy is flexible and can involve any combination of family members—parents and children, couples, or extended relatives. Sometimes, individuals outside the traditional family unit, such as teachers or carers, may also be involved if they play a key role in the family system. We tailor sessions to meet the unique needs of each family.

What types of issues can Family Therapy help with?

Family Therapy can support a wide range of challenges, including breakdowns in communication, ongoing conflict, parenting difficulties, or the impact of one family member’s mental health condition or behavioural issues. Our family therapists in London and Surrey work collaboratively with families to address these concerns in a constructive, non-blaming way.

Is Family Therapy available online?

Yes, we offer online family therapy for those who are unable to attend our London or Surrey clinics in person. Remote sessions are delivered by the same experienced clinicians and provide a convenient, confidential way to access therapy from home while ensuring every member has the opportunity to participate.

  • Jonathan is fantastic. I found our sessions to be a very calm environment that really helped me to reset each week. Jonathan really builds a great rapport, and is very practical and realistic during the process. I could not recommend him more!

    Former Client

  • I am extremely grateful for the care Allison showed me during our sessions. She always adapted sessions to match my needs and demonstrated a real understanding of the difficulties I was facing. Her openness and kindness meant that trust was developed very quickly, and I would have no hesitation in seeing her again should I ever need to.

    Former Client

  • The early stages showed me that Emily truly cares about helping other people. I was hesitant to start sessions, but Emily remained consistent with reaching out and always remained patient and understanding. The depth and structure of the sessions was incredible, I’ve never worked with a therapist who has left me feeling like I understand and appreciate to I am to such a level.
