Benefits of Family Therapy in Mumbai


Over the years, therapy as a concept has evolved and seen many changes. Even in a country like India, it is fast gaining traction, especially when it comes to the bigger cities like Mumbai. Ideas like group therapy are being openly embraced by many people and many have found comfort in therapy. However, today, let’s discuss one lesser known aspect of therapy - family therapy.

Very often, families develop rifts and conflicts within themselves and usually they get resolved on their own. However, in certain cases, things reach a breaking point where it seems impossible to fix. On the other hand, if one person in a family is going through certain behavioral or psychological issues like depression, it tends to affect the entire family. In both these instances, family therapy is the only viable solution. Family therapy basically involves therapy sessions that take place with the entire family. In these sessions, the therapist plays the role of an impartial observer. A good family therapist in Mumbai will first encourage people to talk to each other and will take notes about their behavior patterns and will look for underlying issues. Next, the therapist will attempt to understand how exactly this can be fixed. They will then recommend how the family members should talk to each other and will help them create a safe space where they can discuss their issues without conflict. The aim is to empower the family to communicate better and be more open about their feelings. At the same time, the therapist will try to ensure that the family learns to function well on its own and doesn’t need therapy as a crutch.

There are a few good family therapists in Mumbai who have been practicing for a while. Visit a good therapist and talk to them about your issues and they will tell you how therapy can benefit you.

MENDING AND HEALING RELAITONSHIPS

There is no relationship in the world that does not face problems between the two people. When we talk about a relationship, we have to keep in mind that we are talking about two different individuals coming together to form a beautiful bond of love. Two people with different ideologies and different thinking striving to be accommodating of each other’s needs and maintaining a balance in their own. This system of accommodating and acceptance is going to have a little bit of friction leading to minor fights. But what is important, is how the two people make up after the fight and whether they accept and move on from the incident. Sometimes, a fight or a situation can be so gruesome that both or one of the individuals cannot let go of it. That is when they need the help of a relationship advisor who may be a friend close to the family, a family member or a professional who is trained to deal with couples’ issues on a daily basis. This relationship advisor’s main aim is to first...

COMBATTING DEPRESSION WITH FAMILY’S HELP

Feeling sad is normal. We all feel sad from time to time. The reasons for this sadness may vary. Death or loss of a close one, break up, failure, fight, are some of the instances that make us sad as humans. But eventually, we learn to accept the facts of what has happened, and we move on. Gradually, you feel better and you start living normally again. But what if, this sadness never goes away? What if, you keep feeling sad, and not knowing what is making you sad makes it worse? If these are some of the things that you feel, or know someone who feels this way, then it might be a sign of depression. Depression can happen to anybody.

HOW CHILDHOOD SCARS AFFECT ADULTHOOD

We all face different types of problems in our life. These can be problems in different areas in our lives. It could be our work, our family, our love life, relationship with our friends, career related or something else. Nobody is totally happy and without problems in life. But we have been bestowed with the ability to face these situations and find a solution for these problems on day to day basis. This is how life works after all. We face a problem, we tackle it and then we move forward to the next one waiting for us. Cycle of life as some people like to call it. But sometimes, due to some reasons, we may not be able to cope up with those problems. Nothing we do seems to work out or seems to ease the situation. This in turn leads to a lot of mental stress for an individual. There are many instances when one might seek help from people close to them. But if even that doesn’t seem to help, then maybe seeing a counselling psychologist might. In today’s world that moves forwar...
