Webinar:

How to support blended families with today’s challenges? Blended families face multilayered issues not faced by non-blended families and their rate of dissolution is higher than that of first time families. This webinar will describe the unique characteristics and challenges of blended families as well as their lifecycle. Particular risk factors to be aware of will be presented and how to support family blended family members in transcending these. Overarching needs to be addressed with these types of families will be explained as well as how to work with common pitfalls. The role of the stepmother and that of the stepcouple in supporting resilience in the blended family will also be examined. And finally, best practices in therapy to help blended families will complete this webinar. 15 minutes at the end will be reserved for questions.
