In the last three weeks, you’ve learned about theories that consider the clients’ perspective as the foundation for therapy. Rather than the therapist bringing the client to a theory, the theory is designed to work around the clients’ understanding of the “problem.” In your previous work, you were asked to analyze family interactions. Next, as we learn to think systemically, let’s look for patterns in those interactions.
Looking for Patterns in Family Interactions Template [DOCX] to help you structure your reflections.
Consider one of the systemic conflicts the family in your chosen TV show or movie is experiencing. How would each family member describe the problem from their perspective?
For each theory, using the vocabulary in your readings, provide the theory of problem formation and problem resolution.
What patterns emerge from your fictional family’s interactions? Does someone consistently use humor to diffuse? Does someone get angry? Does someone pacify? How do the other family members respond? Is there consistency in these interactions that show you any systemic pattern
The post Theories that consider the clients’ perspective as the foundation for therapy first appeared on COMPLIANT PAPERS.
