<p>The concept of a "family" differs between cultures, but it is important to recognize that this term includes more than just the immediate family. Community members can also play a role in the process. Young children often have helpful perceptions that contribute to the therapy process. When to include children in family therapy depends on the child's age and the topic of the therapy. If a child is able to participate, family members can be more engaged in the therapy process.</p>

<h3><strong>It can improve problem-solving skills</strong></h3>
<br>
<br>
<p>Practicing positive problem-solving in the home can be a valuable asset. These techniques focus on defining problems, clarifying thoughts, brainstorming and trying solutions. In addition, positive problem-solving helps parents build strong relationships with their children and provides essential life skills. If you or a loved one is struggling with problem-solving, family therapy may be the solution for you. Listed below are some tips for effective problem-solving with your children.</p>

<p>A good icebreaker or introduction to family therapy is the Miracle Worksheet. The Miracle Worksheet helps clients envision a brighter future for themselves and their families. During the first session, clients are given colorful candies. They are then instructed to sort them by color. Yellow candy represents happy memories with their family. While red candy represents unhappy memories, yellow candy represents the best family moments. It's an icebreaker exercise for parents and children alike.</p>
<br>
<br>
<h3><strong>It help address attachment issues</strong></h3>
<br>
<br>
<p>Identifying the primary and secondary emotions fueling attachment insecurities is an important first step in family therapy. The goal of this step is to break the negative cycle of interactions, which organizes the family around feelings of insecurity and vulnerability. The therapist helps families identify these patterns and redirect their attention to the underlying causes. Family therapy reveals the underlying emotional experiences of the family members and their behavior is tracked and documented. Therapists know that family members frequently deal with their feelings in unproductive ways, resulting in behaviors that are often not constructive.</p>
