My daughter and I have a good relationship, but she is very angry about "family" therapy. If I said that no one would go to family therapy, she might be able to trust me. I think therapy could help her, both with potential depression and with dealing with a very difficult parent. I am unclear as to who is actually in family therapy. “It may be helpful to explore what is the daughter’s understanding of the reasons family therapy has started, what the goal of attending family therapy is, and what’s the anticipated length of therapy.”These are issues that could cut away at your daughter’s security and trust with you.
