What You Get When You Choose Familiae
We are clear about what we offer and what we do not. That clarity is itself one of our core strengths.
Six Reasons Families Come Back
Facilitated by Practitioners
Our team includes adult educators, a trained archivist, and experienced community facilitators — not generalists trying many things, but people with specific backgrounds that match what we do.
Clear Scope, Every Time
Every session begins with a plain explanation of what we do and what we do not do. Families are never left wondering whether they are receiving advice or education. We are always the latter.
Real, Usable Outcomes
You leave the records activity with an actual folder — not a PDF summary. The conversation workshop ends with documented personal communication notes each participant takes home.
Built for Bangkok's Diversity
Sessions are designed with multicultural and multi-generational households in mind. We do not apply a single cultural template to how family communication works or what family records should look like.
Community Without Pressure
The Generations Membership gives access to a peer group — not a managed support group. Members share general experiences in their own time. Nobody is asked to disclose what they are not comfortable sharing.
Transparent, Fixed Pricing
Pricing is stated upfront — no add-ons, no upsells mid-session. The Conversation Workshop is ฿3,500, Records Organising is ฿7,200, and the Membership is ฿11,800. What you see is what you pay.
Facilitated by People Who Know Their Field
Nantawan, who leads our workshops, brings fifteen years of adult group facilitation experience from community and educational settings in Thailand. James, who runs the records activity, trained as an archivist in Europe and has handled personal document collections for over a decade. Arunee, who manages our Membership community, has a background in adult education programme design.
This is not a general facilitation practice that happened to add family activities. The team was built around these specific offerings from the beginning.

A Consistent and Considered Approach
Every activity at Familiae follows a consistent structure that families can rely on. Before each session, participants receive a preparation note so they arrive knowing what to expect. Sessions open with a clear statement of scope. After the activity, relevant signposting to further resources is provided.
This structure is deliberate. Families dealing with sensitive history or complex dynamics benefit from knowing exactly what the session will and will not involve before they walk in.
Priced to Reflect What Is Actually Delivered
Our pricing is straightforward. The Conversation Workshop (฿3,500 per participant) covers a half-day session with a professional facilitator, workshop materials, and a personalised communication note to take home. The Records Organising activity (฿7,200 per household) includes multiple sessions, all materials, and a completed keepsake folder.
The Generations Membership (฿11,800 per household) includes access to monthly workshops, the growing template library, and the peer community. There are no hidden fees, and there is no pressure to purchase anything additional during sessions.
All materials included in stated price — no extras billed mid-session
Household pricing on records activity covers the whole family unit
No upselling or add-ons suggested during sessions
Payment terms confirmed in writing before any session begins

Things You Will Not Find Elsewhere in Bangkok
Archival-Standard Records Output
The keepsake folder produced in our records activity is designed using archival principles — acid-free materials, clear labelling conventions, and a logical structure that family members of any age can navigate.
The Familiae Referral Commitment
If something comes up in a session that goes beyond what educational facilitation can address, we stop and point the family toward the right kind of help — clearly and without hesitation.
Cross-Cultural Story Framework
The Conversation Workshop uses a story-sharing framework developed specifically for Bangkok's intercultural context — acknowledging that how families talk about the past varies widely and that no single approach is universal.
Growing Template Library
Generations Members access an expanding library of story-keeping templates — prompts, formats, and frameworks for recording family history in ways that work for different family sizes, languages, and structures.
