Case Conceptualization in Family Therapy- Structural Family Therapy

This Minuchin structural family therapy case conceptualization explores one of the most fascinating and clinically complex presentations you'll encounter in family work: a young man whose dissociative identity disorder is deeply rooted in dysfunctional family structure, porous boundaries, and a cross-generational coalition between mother and son. Using structural family therapy's core assessment tools — family mapping, the hypothesis generator, and circular questioning — we analyze how the symptom is maintaining homeostasis in the family and what the therapist needs to do to shift it.Ideal for therapists, counsellors, and students wanting to see structural family therapy applied to a real case, this video covers hierarchy, power dynamics, enmeshment, and the all-important question every systemic therapist has to ask: what is this symptom actually doing for the family? If you've been searching for a structural family therapy case study that goes beyond the basics and into genuine clinical depth, this one is for you.Join the new free F⁠⁠amily Therapy Community ⁠⁠here https://www.skool.com/family-systems-collective-7929/aboutNew episodes of 15 Minutes of Family Systems every week. ⁠⁠Read the newsletter or subscribe using⁠⁠ the link below.https://www.mypeoplepatterns.com/newsletters/family-systems-h-i-t-newsletter/subscribeMore about me: ⁠⁠www.OliverDrakefordTherapy.com
