A Focus Series
Our family of origin is the family we were born or adopted into. It’s the people who raise us and who we spend most of our childhood with, and therefore it is foundational in shaping how we see ourselves, the world, and all future relationships. Parents try their best, but most of us grew up with unhealthy patterns of behaviour that, if we are not aware of, can repeat into the next generation. The following resources will help you better understand the impact of your own family of origin and how you can find healing.
If you’re looking for personalized guidance, you can contact our care and counselling team to speak to one of our in-house counsellors or get connected to a registered counsellor in your area. Call us at 1.800.661.9800 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. PT and ask to speak with the care associate.
