Family Ther: Assessment and Intervention

This course is a study of the family as a system of interactive elements with a focus on the therapeutic implications of treating patterns and processes rather than personalities. This course combines readings, simulations, and videotaped role-plays to increase understanding of the complexities and intricacies of a family system, focusing on how to join with and intervene with client systems. Students will develop proficiency in approaching assessment and treatment with families.
