Things I know having worked with families for nearly a decade:
🟣 Each family is unique, yet all families are human (flawed), complex and multifaceted
🟢 Therapeutic work with parents is vital, especially as trauma often runs within families
🟣 We need to collaboratively find solutions, as everyone in the family is an expert in their family
🟢 There are fluid roles, systems & structures in every family that are unspoken and unseen, yet informs how everyone acts, behaves, communicates and connects
🟣 When we help build self-awareness, empathy & connection within a family, this creates stronger bonds
🟢 We need to recognise each other's strengths, as this builds resilience within the family system.
