Description

In this text, Butler takes an in-depth look at the development of family systems theory and how the work of Bowen, Gelso, and Meissner has shaped family psychotherapy. Family systems theory considers the family as an emotional unit in the therapeutic process and examines the therapeutic relationship in terms of its three primary components: the alliance, transference/countertransference, and the real relationship better known as the tripartite model. Butler explores how the aspects Bowen family systems theory can provide effective methods for counseling families, couples, and individuals.”
