Marriage and Family Therapist

A Marriage and Family Therapist helps individuals, couples and families experiencing conflict and challenges. The individuals cannot resolve their issues themselves and hope professional help can improve the situation so that everyone can have a better relationship. An individual might seek the help of an MFT to work on their own mental health issues or feelings toward themselves. When treating an individual patient, the MFT will focus on how the issues being discussed impact the individual’s relationships. Alternatively, couples or families work with a Marriage and Family Therapist when dealing with interpersonal conflict or mental health issues causing problems in relationship dynamics.
