This course provides an overview of various systems approaches to family and couples therapy, integrating Adlerian concepts and techniques.  Through lecture, role-play, case study and project development, students will be introduced to a variety of therapeutic procedures and intervention strategies which will promote systemic assessment, treatment planning, ongoing interventions and termination.  As a course project, students will integrate course resources to create a “family and couples therapy manual” for their own practices.
