FTH4TSI

2014

Credit points: 15

Subject outline

In this subject you will explore your resources and constraints in your work with families in order to increase your effectiveness. You will reflect on your family of origin, current life circumstances, professional history and other contextual influences. You will deepen your knowledge of relevant theoretical frameworks that are useful for conceptualising and appraising the relationship between the influence of your own self-factors and your interactions with clients. Therapist self-care and ethics will be included. This subject will be offered in a flexible learning format which will include small group online tutorials and guided reading. You will be required to research your own family of origin influences, and present to your small group tutorial, an integration of these with the relevant theory. Graduate Diploma and Masters candidates will be required to attend two days of this subject, face-to-face, where they will provide a demonstration of skill and theory integration.
