Families have a pivotal role in the treatment and recovery of a loved one from mental health disorders or addictions. Whether it be parents, children, spouses, or others, allowing the family to heal together increases treatment success and long-term recovery.
“It’s important to get the family involved because sometimes disorders find their way into the family system, and it’s hard to recover from that when the system keeps pulling you inside of it over and over and over again. So when we change the system the potential for change for the client is much greater.” – Dr. Melissa Flanigan, Clinical Director
From parent coaching for adolescents to family therapy, including the family is an important step in the therapeutic process that Mission Harbor includes when the family is willing. Allowing the family to heal together increases longterm health and happiness for all involved.
