The document discusses psychodynamic family therapy. It covers key concepts like nuclear family emotional systems, differentiation of self, fusion, and triangulation. It also discusses functional and dysfunctional behavior. The strategies and interventions of the therapist include setting therapy goals to help clients become more self-differentiated and understand how family interactions impact symptoms. The role of the therapist is to remain objective, use genograms, help clients think intellectually rather than emotionally, and not give advice or accept demands. Important steps in evaluation include taking a history of the presenting problem, nuclear family, and extended family.
