If so, you may find Relate Gloucestershire & Swindon's new Family Counselling service can help you.  
   
Who can come?  
   
Any member of the family can come along to regular counselling sessions to discuss problems in a safe and relaxed setting. Typically we might see parents or step-parents with all or some of their children; young or adult siblings; or extended members of the family such as grandparents, aunts, uncles etc. By family, we mean any group of people who describe themselves as a family - so that could include friends as well.  
 
What will we talk about?
 
Our counsellors will give a voice to everyone in the family to say what is bothering them. Often we find that simply talking about problems helps to resolve them. We will help you to build on your strengths as a family rather than getting weighed down by your troubles.
 
If your family is having problems, you can see one of our family counsellors individually, as a small group or the whole family together to tell you how to work things out in a way that is best for everyone. Our counsellors are experienced relationship experts and are specially trained to work with families to help them resolve their problems.
