Family counseling may help to promote better relationships and understanding within a family. It may be incident specific, as for example family counseling during a divorce, or the chronic/ terminal illness of a family member. Alternately family counseling may address the needs of the family when one family member suffers from a mental or physical illness that alters his or her behavior or habits in negative ways. Family counseling, frequently helps in handling of adjustment problems with a difficult adolescent.
