Family Therapy
At A New Spirit BHS family therapy is conducted within a systemic framework. It is the understanding of the family as a system in today’s social environment. Whatever affects one member of the family, affects the family system overall, and what affects the system affects its individual members. Bringing about effective change to any part of the family system, or any member of the family, paves the way for the family to function at its best.
The heart of the family is the wellbeing of its members.

Marital/Couples Therapy
Difficulties in intimate relationships are experienced by all couples at one point or another with varying degrees of discord. Some relationships are easy to repair. Others are more deeply embedded in dysfunction and may take longer for changes to be realized. When issues such as trust, communication, and respect seem lost in the relationship, A New Spirit BHS guides willing couples to focus on their core beliefs, evaluate their thinking, and change interactional patterns toward restoration of healthy relationships.
