As a family therapist I am trained from a relational perspe
ctive which incorporates the family system into the therapeutic work along with extensive psychotherapy training. Many mental health professionals recognize the necessity of working with mental and emotional problems within the context of the family. Research has shown that family therapy interventions are as effective and sometimes more effective than other interventions used in psychotherapy.
