Family Therapist Family Programming
Our family therapy program at Magnolia Creek offers education, advocacy, and therapy for clients’ family members. Upon admission, each client meets with their family therapist to set goals for family relationships, identify key support members, and discuss their childhood, past relationships, and eating disorder behaviors. The family therapist then contacts these identified individuals to introduce family therapy and schedule the first session via telephone, Skype, or in person.
Families can maintain dysfunction or work together to create a healthy balance. In our program, clients and their loved ones can address presenting issues in a safe space, allowing them to express their thoughts and feelings openly. Our approach includes education, coaching, advocacy, and various therapeutic models to facilitate positive change.
