SPECIFIC INFORMATION ON MY APPROACH
What is Systemic Family Therapy?
Systemic family therapy is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on improving communication in your immediate surroundings, very often your family or your experiences with your family in past.
Approach is based on the fact that the family is a unique social system that has its own structure and patterns of communication. There are no two of the same families. Each family (=system) evolves in its own unique way. There is always a connection between you, your symptoms (but they are a symptom of the whole system even if you are suffering from them) and the functioning of the family system in general.
People with their family remain connected in various ways throughout their lives. Every person must be regarded in the context of his/her family. In family therapy we focus on
interaction and communication processes
on balance / imbalance of forces
on processes of influence
on structures for conflict resolution
and on establishing improving changes in patterns
to achieve the change you wanted and for which you actually started your psychotherapeutic process
This also implies the goal of family therapy, which is not only simple to bring about changes in your life but also to change patterns in your family or in your perception of your family.
Family therapy takes into account the context in which you and your family are living at the level of larger systems such as
the wider family
social community
culture
nation
religion
as well as at the subsystem level such as
parental
partner
siblings
Family therapy does not consider you to be a problem but problems may occur because of difficulties in communication and interactions. Systemic family therapy is applicable in all fields, it is also useful in educating and working with companies that have large collectives and are also an organized system of individuals.
