Excommunicating a family member is when a family distances itself from a member due to conflict or harmful behavior. It’s similar to ostracism, which can have negative psychological effects. 

Causes of family estrangement 

  • Abuse: Physical, emotional, or sexual abuse
  • Toxic behaviors: Ongoing negative behaviors
  • Unacceptance: Feeling unaccepted or unsupported
  • Other relationships: Disapproval of a child’s other relationships, such as a spouse, in-laws, or stepparent
  • Unrealistic expectations: Having different expectations for familial relationships

Effects of family estrangement 

  • Psychological consequences: Loneliness, low self-esteem, aggression, and depression
  • Grief response: The estrangement can feel like an unexpected loss
  • Isolation: The rejected party may feel isolated and experience behavioral changes

Family therapy 

  • Excommunication can be used as a family therapy technique to remove a member who is causing conflict
  • The goal is to remove the member until they are willing to accept the values they have transgressed
