In Person Counselling in Dublin 7, Dublin

Systemic Psychotherapy, also known as Couple or Family Therapy, attempts to understand a person’s distress within the situation in which it occurs, such as in the person’s family, couple relationship or in the wider environment. This therapeutic approach does not isolate the person, but rather helps individuals make sense of their difficulties in the context of their present lives. A family therapist believes that, while the origin of a problem may well have a foundation in the past, the solution can often be found in current relationships.
