Family Business Advising

Someone who has never been exposed to it really doesn’t understand that the family business is the moving force in the family.

At the EFT Clinic we understand the amazing opportunities and challenges which come with growing a successful family business. A staggering 85-90% of U.S. businesses are owned by families and over half of the U.S. gross domestic product is generated from family enterprises. In addition, family owned businesses account for almost 80% of new jobs and 65% of all wages paid in the U.S.  Clearly, family owned businesses make a huge contribution to society and at the same time create a difficult balance between family and business relationships.

As family businesses continue to grow, there is a critical need for qualified advisors who can guide families through the challenges that naturally accompany family enterprise.  If you are part of a family business and find that the complex relationships which are naturally a part of family business have become distant or distressed, we can help. Our family business therapists are trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Families and specialize in helping families in business heal strained relationships and work towards harmony and productivity in both the family and the business.

Depending on your unique situation, our team will customize a treatment program tailored to your specific needs. Your treatment program may include individual and family meetings with a specialist at the clinic or on location at your place of business. We also offer a two-day family workshop focussed on developing a family business vision statement, identifying shared family and business goals, and learning new healthy communication skills. Contact The EFT Clinic for a complementary consultation.

Feedback from our clients:

“I’m just so happy we did family business therapy! It’s amazing how just having someone to be a neutral party to express feelings to helped open the door of understanding towards each other.”

“You really can’t believe how the educational aspects you shared with us has totally resolved many of ou issues. We have been on vacation several times since our meetings with you and family together time has been wonderful with no hidden tensions. Before we met I was dreading family time.”
