Family therapy is a form of psychotherapy that treats family members together to address relational conflicts, communication breakdowns, and the impact of one member's issues on the whole family system. It is practiced by licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), psychologists, and clinical social workers using approaches like structural, systemic, or narrative therapy. Common applications include treating substance abuse, behavioral issues in children, and marital conflict.
