Do you have a teen
or pre-teen loved one that suffers from drug and/or alcohol abuse?
"Underage drinking presents an enormous public health issue. Alcohol
is the drug of choice among children and adolescents. Annually, about 5,000
youth under age 21 die from motor vehicle crashes, other unintentional injuries,
and homicides and suicides that involve underage drinking."
"In 2006, 1.4 million youth ages 12 to 17 needed treatment for an alcohol
problem. Of this group, only 101,000 of them received any treatment at a
specialty facility."

Ground Rules
for Family Meeting
Family therapy, also referred to as couple and family therapy
and family systems therapy, is a branch of psychotherapy that
works with families, including adults and adolescents, to
nurture change and development of the family. Family Therapy
views change in terms of the systems of interaction between
family members. It emphasizes family relationships as an important
factor in finding solutions to family problems or problems
of individuals within the family.
There are several schools of family therapy, yet their commonality
is a belief that, regardless of the origin of the problem,
and regardless of whether the clients consider it an “individual
problem”, “teen problem”, or “family”
problem, involving families in solutions or looking at the
family system, is often beneficial. This involvement of families
is commonly accomplished by their direct participation in
the therapy session. The skills of the family therapist include
the ability to influence conversations in a way that recognizes
the strengths, wisdom, and support of the wider system.
Family therapy has been used effectively in the full range
of human dilemmas; there is no category of relationship or
psychological problem that has not been addressed with this
approach. The conceptual frameworks developed by family therapists,
especially those of family systems theorists, have been applied
to a wide range of human behavior, including adolescent issues,
teen drug abuse, addiction, juvenile justice and court ordered
issues , trauma, divorce, and all of the current issues teens
and adults are facing.

systems approach to helping the client(s), find solutions

take place either in person or via conference call.
