Description
Description:
After a brief description of Family Therapy in the 1960s and an equally brief description of where it is today, we will make a comparison of the success of family therapy in Europe and the shrinkage in the U.S. A new model of family assessment in four easy steps will be described.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe a map to guide interventions in the beginning of therapy.
- To compare and contrast the different ways of doing Family Therapy.
