Family Therapy
What is Family Therapy?
Family Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on improving communication, resolving conflict, and restoring emotional connection among family members. It is particularly helpful when one or more individuals in the family are dealing with mental health issues, addiction, trauma, or behavioral challenges.
At Calida Rehab, Family Therapy is integrated into treatment plans for clients in inpatient and outpatient care. We work with families to rebuild trust, break unhealthy patterns, and create a supportive environment where recovery is sustainable.
