Marriage and/or Family counseling can take many shapes. It is usually prefered that as many people in the family system get involved in treatment as possible yet in truth it only takes one person to change a relationship. The more people involved in creating change the better yet if one only person is ready and willing to do the work then we welcome them to come get the help they need. Think of a clock with spinning cogs. If just one of those spinning cogs begins to operate differently then the whole clock will be affected. This goes for marriages and for parenting dynamics alike.
