When you take coursework in family dynamics and behavioral health, you will be taught foundational competencies in the field. These may include family dynamics and systems, couples relationships, parenting dynamics and the skills and modalities that professionals may use when working with families. Depending on where your career takes you, you may have opportunities to help clients improve their family dynamics. If you decide to further your education with a master’s degree in counseling that leads to licensure, you’ll complete field experience or practicum hours that will enable you to put what you’ve been taught into practice, helping others strengthen their family relationships.5
