Recover Australia - A Service of Excellence in Mental Health

Family Services











Recover Australia understands that clients are rarely a single unit and therefore we are able to provide family therapy services to allow the whole family to work together to gain a better understanding and develop new approaches to their needs.

Whats is family Therapy?

Family therapy, sometimes called family focus therapy or family systems therapy, is a type of psychological therapy that works to change the relationships within families to help them better deal with a wide range of problems.

Family therapy helps family members find constructive ways to help each other. Due to this flexibility, family therapy is useful in a wide range of situations. Family therapy can be useful in childhood and adult conditions including conduct and mood disorders, eating disorders, drug abuse and psychiatric conditions as well as couples experiencing difficulties. Family therapy is useful throughout life and can be especially useful in the treatment of long term illness such as depression.

How it works

Family therapy usually works within family groups but often includes work with people on an individual basis or, when appropriate, individual sessions within a series of family meetings. Family therapy may also include the social networks around families.  

Clinicians within our team who deliver family therapy have specialized qualifications and experience within this field. 

This service can be delivered under the MHNIP and can be free and unlimited when referred appropriately. To find our more please contact us at info@recovervictoria.com
