As the quote from Virginia Satir suggests, family therapy is necessary to address family pain and heal a family's wounds.
We all start this life with a family, whether that family is composed of blood relatives, adopted parents, or a foster family.
This family that we acquire when we are born influences every aspect of our lives, from our first moments to our last.
Our family affects who we are and who we become, both for the better and for worse.
We learn our vocabulary, our habits, our customs and rituals, and how to view and observe the world around us.
