Family in Crisis With Dan Bates

SMART Counsel

Family is important, and a healthy family is no accident! Those striving to cultivate a family environment that is safe, nurturing, loving, and emotionally intelligent face a formidable set of challenges. And as if the routine challenges were not enough, every family faces crisis at one time or another. What's a family to do? How can this peculiar group of people navigate the daily rigors and extraordinary stressors in a way that brings them closer together rather than alienates? Rhys and Josh sat down with Dan Bates (Counselor Dan) for a conversation about families, particularly families in crisis. We discussed resources, strategies, and concepts. We also heard about Dan's book, "Family Crisis Guidebook: Practical Steps To Work Through Difficult Situations." Listen along for some great ideas about healthy families.
