So gelingt Familie

Family plays a central role in the lives of all people. Most of our personality traits and preferences are influenced by the way we grow up. And when we become parents ourselves, we have to make decisions about how we want to raise our own children—decisions that shape their future development. In this book, Eia Asen draws on his many years of experience as a family therapist to provide readers with practical tips for all phases of family life: from the first infatuation to the transition from a couple to a family of three, to mastering midlife crises and the challenges of aging. Asen addresses typical family scenarios, points out ways to recognize problems early, and presents exercises that help families find solutions on their own. Additionally, the author explains when it is necessary to seek support from professionals. The book combines compassionate, encouraging advice with healthy humor and is recommended for anyone who wants to better understand their family and enjoy life with them.
