Navigating Therapy Options: Individual vs. Family for Children with Attachment Trauma

Should my child- who has a history of attachment trauma- be only doing family therapy? Or is it OK for them to do individual therapy?

In this episode, I:

• Reassure you that this is a nuanced decision with no clear answer
• Describe when individual therapy might be most appropriate
• Describe when family therapy might be most appropriate

This is a Friday Q&A episode, where I answer a listener’s question.
