Youth and Family Services include the family when working with the young person. They may work with the family even when the young person is not willing to participate. Services usually include individual or family counselling, and may also include mediation, which is a structured program used to sort out specific disagreements.
Family Support Services may provide case-management, which involves working with the family to sort out the main issues and then recommending suitable services. They may also provide parenting assistance, family counselling and mediation. They may come to your home, or meet you at their office, or another location. These services tend to work with families with children under 18 years.
Family Counselling Services offer support for individuals and families and some will provide counselling regardless of the age of family members. These services may provide individual, couple relationship, family counselling, or mediation.
There are also private family therapists who work with the whole family. They may work for an organisation or in private practice.
To find out about the youth and family services that operate in your area, ask your local government, community health centre, local doctor, or welfare organisation.
