Family therapy is a field of psychotherapy. Through family therapy, families or individuals within a family learn better ways to interact with each other and resolve conflicts. Family therapy is usually provided by clinical social workers or licensed therapists known as marriage and family therapists.
Obsessions are intrusive, irrational thoughts that drive a person to certain behaviors. For example, a person may become obsessed with hand hygiene and may, therefore, be driven to wash their hands continuously. While the individual may sense that this is irrational, they cannot control their desire to address the situation.
While it is natural to be fearful in a dangerous situation and while you may have short-term after-effects from an incident, a trauma should not lead to fear, apprehension and behavioral changes months after the event. If it does, you may be suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress disorder. PTSD is a real illness.
