‘Small changes over time lead to lasting change’
Systemic Consultations
For many clients, considering therapy for the first time can feel overwhelming, and they may be unsure if family therapy is the right fit for their needs.
At SBF Therapy Ltd we offer systemic consultations. Systemic consultation provides families with the opportunity to participate in a focused, one-off session to explore the challenges they are currently facing and review the solutions they have already tried. During this session, we work collaboratively to assess whether family therapy might be the most appropriate approach for the family, or if an alternative form of therapy would better suit their needs.
Session Details
Systemic consultations are designed as a focused, one-time session lasting 50 minutes.
Family Therapy
we understand that the word “family” can mean different things to different people. For us, family is any group of individuals who care for and support one another, however they choose to define it.
Family life can be beautifully complex because each person is unique. Everyone brings their own perspectives, emotions, worries, and strengths to the table. Life’s challenges—like illness, unemployment, moving house, new family dynamics, aging, divorce, loss, or trauma—can make these complexities feel overwhelming at times.
While some families find ways to navigate these changes on their own, others may struggle for reasons unique to their situation. Family therapy offers a compassionate space to support families feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain. It can help when emotions like sadness or anger take over, or when families feel trapped in unhelpful patterns. Together, we work to find new ways of understanding and healing, so families can reconnect and move forward with greater confidence and harmony.
Common topics:
- Families and couples seeking to build closer, happier, and more fulfilling relationships.
- Families facing significant challenges such as addiction, mental or physical illness, bereavement, eating disorders, aging, cultural adjustments, trauma, or ongoing family conflicts.
- Parents and caregivers concerned about their children’s behaviour and looking for guidance.
- Parents planning to divorce or separate in a way that prioritizes their children’s happiness and emotional well-being.
- Any family looking for support to discuss difficult or sensitive topics in a safe, open, creative, and constructive space.
Session Details
Family therapy sessions are scheduled fortnightly on the same day and time.
This thoughtful spacing provides families the opportunity to reflect, practice new skills, and work on changes in their daily lives between sessions, making the therapy process more impactful.
