Marriage and Family Therapists understand that no one is an island in and of themselves. We live life within the relationships around us, whether in family, at school, work, church or extra-curricular activities. A marriage and family therapist will keep in mind the relationships that affect you. Individual, marriage and family counselling can often help restore and encourage relationships to persevere through the tough times. Life is full of difficulties, however, if our experiences can be validated and we can learn to push through the difficulties, we can often find our God given purposes in life. Erik Erikson once wrote, "A crisis, can be a turning point; it can heighten your potential for positive change. it is a time to rebuild, to commit yourself to a lifetime of renewal, to allow yourself to feel hopeful about your future. It is a time to create something new, something better than what you had before.
