"In this three-part training video, Dr. Kenneth V. Hardy demonstrates Family Systems Therapy. Hardy works with a client whose efforts to avoid conflict have the unintended effect of creating a rift in his marriage. He urges the client to express his feelings to his wife directly, bringing to light deep fears of revealing his anger and receiving disapproval. You will develop an understanding of the key tenets of Family Systems Therapy, including relationships, interactions and context; learn to assess a client's beliefs and value systems in order to intervene within the client's context of meaning; and learn how to apply a Family Systems approach to your own therapeutic work with clients. Hosts Jon Carlson and Diane Kjos introduce Dr. Hardy and facilitate a discussion of the case. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions."
