Assignment # 3: All in the Family Think of a familiar family who may be going through some difficulty that could bring them to see a family therapist. This can be: 1) your own family, 2) a family that you personally know, 3) a real but personally unknown family such as the Kardashians or the Robertsons of Duck Dynasty (think reality TV), or 4) a completely fictional family such as The Simpsons or the Everdeen family from the Hunger Games. These are just examples! Please consider a conflict that they may be (or potentially could be) experiencing from the perspective of TWO of the family theories (i.e. Intergenerational Family Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, Strategic Family Therapy, Humanistic and Experiential Family Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, Multisystemic Family Therapy, Narrative Family Therapy, Feminist Family Therapy). Feel free to either discuss some real issue, or be creative to make up some type of issue or problem that could be addressed in therapy! What is the underlying cause of the conflict per these two family theories? What would be the therapeutic goals, and what techniques would two types of family therapists use in working with this family? Your grade is based on the following: 5 points – Discussion of Family Factors – Who are the members of your family? (Describe the family.) What presenting problems did your clients demonstrate? What brought them to therapy? 10 points – Use of 1 family systems therapy – Name the first family theory that you will be discussing. How would that type of theorist conceptualize the family problem? (In other words, what does this theory consider to be problematic?) Which techniques could you use in working with this family? Were there any particular words you used to introduce the technique to your clients? 10 points – Use of another family systems therapy – Name the second family theory that you will be discussing. How would that type of theorist conceptualize the family problem? (In other words, what does this theory consider to be problematic?) Which techniques could you use in working with this family? Were there any particular words you used to introduce the technique to your clients? Total – 25 points

Family Factors

The Gibson family consists of four members, Jane the mother and three children namely
Kimberly, Allan, and Charlie. Kimberly commonly known as Kim is the eldest and she is
seventeen years old. Allan the second born is fifteen, and the youngest is Charlie. Jane is a single
mother who despite having it rough in life, continually tries her best to raise her three kids in the
best ways possible. Jane is an accountant and a member of a choir in a local church. Her
generosity and kindness have made her the envy of the town. In spite of having an average
salary, she has managed to send all the three children to school and has bought a decent home for
the family.
Jane split from her husband of seven years a while back because of his abusive behavior.
Whenever Mathew Gibson got drunk, he would become verbally and physically abusive. He
after that vented all his anger on his wife and the three innocent kids. He was frustrated with his
lack of a job. He hated the fact that Jane had a job while he didn't, and this made him a sad and
abusive man. Jane couldn't take it anymore, and she filed for divorce after trying out several
marriage counseling therapies with Mathew. After the divorce, the family was never the same.
The children became cold towards Jane as they blamed her for the divorce. Kim became a
delinquent teenager. She missed school often and started abusing drugs. Shortly after, Allan and
