Family Systems in Couples Therapy Group

This is a clinical case consultation group focused on couples therapists who specialize in Family Systems, Bowenian, Attachment Styles, or related theories and how it impacts the couple’s unit. Case consultation will focus on couples topics such as:

  • Building self-awareness to reduce reactivity during conflict
  • Differentiating from our families
  • Navigation tools & boundaries with in-laws
  • Countertransference towards our children (i.e., self of the parent)

Member sign ups are open to any state, however Pacific Time may be preferred for easier scheduling. Graduate students and associates/interns welcome, as long as you have experience with couples and can bring cases for everyone to learn from each other.
