    This chapter emphasizes the social importance of a healthy family and family counseling. Although it is known that creating a family is important, it may not be that easy to establish and build the family on a healthy basis. The peace within the family may be shaken when married life, which begins with a husband-wife relationship, becomes complicated with other roles added in the next stage (mother-father/grandparent...) and brings with it new problems. The article tried to explain what problems may occur in the family and what precautions can be taken. In addition, the article tried to express that in such situations, intra-family dynamics may be insufficient to solve the problem and how important it can be to receive family counseling support at such times.
