"Emotional reactiveness in a family, or other group that lives or works together, goes from one family member to another in a chain reaction pattern." Murray Bowen, 1971

Have you noticed how when one family member becomes anxious and upset about something the feeling reverberates through the entire family? Your family is an emotional system. In order to understand what's going on with any particular family member, the entire relationship system needs to be undestood as completely as possible.

Marriage and family therapists are specifically trained in systems thinking and can help you understand how anxiety may be flowing through your family system.

Intentionally yours,
