Family Therapy
Family therapy at Bryn Mawr Mental Health and Wellness brings the people who matter most into the room. In 50-minute sessions, we help parents, adolescents, and adult family members untangle patterns, lower conflict, and rebuild trust — together rather than in isolation.

Family Therapy in Bryn Mawr, PA and Across the Main Line
Family Counseling for Main Line Families
Families are systems, and sometimes the system needs support. Our family therapy practice serves households across Bryn Mawr, the Main Line, and greater Philadelphia — parents and adolescents caught in the same argument every week, adult siblings navigating a parent's illness, blended families finding new footing. Sessions run 50 minutes, in person at our Bryn Mawr office or by secure video anywhere in Pennsylvania.
A Family Systems Approach
Rather than locating the problem in one person, family systems therapy looks at the patterns between people: who speaks, who withdraws, which roles have hardened over time. We draw on structural and emotionally focused family approaches, plus practical communication and problem-solving skills that families can use at home during the week — not just in the room.
Coordinated with Psychiatric and Individual Care
When a family member is also in individual therapy, medication management, or an interventional treatment such as accelerated TMS, we coordinate care under one roof. Families understand the plan, know how to support it, and stop guessing — which is often the single biggest change in the household.
Frequently asked questions about family therapy
Who attends family therapy sessions?

Whoever is central to the issue. That may be two parents and a teenager, a parent and an adult child, or a full household. We often begin with the adults, then bring others in as the work takes shape.
How long are family therapy sessions at Bryn Mawr Mental Health and Wellness?
+
Fifty minutes. Most families work in a focused course of sessions, with cadence and length of care set collaboratively based on goals rather than an insurance authorization.
