How Family Therapy is Crucial in Treatment
There are no happy families… there are happy people who build happy and balanced families.”
Addictions are symptoms generated from multiple cross-cutting factors over time, including factors present before the addictive behavior appears. One of these factors of vital importance is contributed by the family system, which has received ancestral legacies that have been maintained from generation to generation in a conscious or unconscious way, and that have been shared with us without knowing that they share them and that we have received even without knowing that we receive them in order to share them later on. When a family member manifests addiction difficulties with all that this implies, it turns out to be a wonderful opportunity for the whole system to reorganize and assume this difficult situation as a fertile crisis that if the family system is unified and assumed with love and openness generates the possibility of healing at a personal level and therefore as a team. The whole family system enters the recovery process even if they are not receiving it directly. In theory and in practice it is assumed that the family should contain, support and promote the welfare of all its members, unfortunately in some cases even believing and wanting to do the right thing they do harm and put counterproductive elements that strengthen cracks and problems that then become visible in these problems among others.
