Eia Asen and Heiner Schuff:
Psychosis and Multiple Family Group Therapy.
Despite the growing evidence base for the effectiveness of family intervention in the treatment of persons suffering from a psychotic disorder, in practice only relatively few mental health teams use family approaches when treating and managing persons with schizophrenia or other psychoses. This paper describes a pragmatic model, which can be used in addition to other ongoing treatments, such as medication, CBT or single family therapy. It was developed jointly by clinicians and service users over the past few years. It consists of regular multiple family group work, with 6 - 8 families attending simultaneously, and aims to involve families directly in the treatment, rehabilitation and recovery of their members suffering from psychotic disorder.

Eia Asen: Multi-Contextual Multiple Family Therapy. Family therapy, now more accurately named: systemic therapy, has developed over the past 50 years and has now come of age. Different schools and approaches have evolved over the years, reflecting changing societal, cultural and political priorities and landscapes. We have seen the emergence of strategic and structural family therapy models, followed by Milan, post-Milan and social constructionist schools, as well as behavioural, psycho-educational, solution-focused and narrative approaches. Nowadays it is fairly rare for allegedly 'pure' models to be practiced, as the huge cultural variety of our clients and their families, as well as their presenting problems and the contexts within which systemic work is carried out, all require diverse and flexible responses. Post-modern systemic therapists tend to be multi-modal practitioners, working in many different settings, both public and private. In the public domain, systemic practitioners tend to be part of multi-disciplinary teams and their interventions need to be part of the overall framework and approach of the team. Some once precious, if not self-congratulatory interventions, designed behind one way screens by teams of four, now tend to be a thing of the past. Systemic practitioners instead find themselves employing 'swampy lowland principles' (Rycroft 2004) and often have to become 'context chameleons' (Asen 2004) to remain engaged and effective. They require three distinct skills: context reading, context making and context managing. Download artikel |
