Being part of a family is like being in a constellation.

Each member falls into a role that helps the family function as a unit.

Sometimes, this unit can operate in a dysfunctional way.

One member may assume the responsibility of “fixing” what or whom is causing chaos in the family which can allow the chaos to continue.

Exhausted? Burnt out?

Some patterns keep you in a vicious cycle of miscommunication, hurt, and anger.

As a healthy unit, each family member has a voice to express his or her feelings.

Other family members hear and understand them without judgment, resentment, and reaction.

Validate and understand each other’s feelings.

In therapy, a mother will learn how to talk to her child. She can deliver the message she intends in a form that is devoid of negativity or derogatory meanings.

This will allow her child in turn, to be more open to the conversation, increasing the chances of more effective communication, and bringing positive change.

Understanding your role can help make the family unit stronger.
