There are five strategic techniques in the practice of family therapies. They are as follows:
Identification of problems
In every human life, there will be problems in one or other ways. Discussing about the problems between the members immediately and finding a solution is the effective thing to get rid of future enhancements of problems. All these small issues lead to more awkward situations of the relationships. A family therapy is the only solution that can act as a catalyst to improve the efficiency of a relation. The first step in the family counseling is the identification of what the exact problem is which affects the root of the family. The techniques analyze what all problems are affecting the stability of the family and reaction of the members towards such things. They assist the members to give a deep idea about the communication strategies and family structure.
Information gathering
During the initial stages of family therapy (effektive parterapi is the term in Denmark), a structural representation of the family history is made. The technique of genogram is used for this technique. For the preparation of structural diagram, both the members and therapist have equal participation. They identify the official ideas of each members of the family regarding the house plans, business, rules and regulations and so on.
Family system strategies
The systematic behavior of the family involves equal role for each members that make up the entire family. They keep notes by individually questioning the situations in the family system. The therapists (den bedste psykoterapeut as we Danes say) analyze the responses of each member and find a conclusion. They assist on clearing if there are any negative impacts in those responses. A complete rearrangement of the family structure is carried out at the end of this technique. Members are allowed to find their individual position in the family structure and to update the relationship status. This technique is very much helpful in maintaining the bond between each of them.
Communication techniques
The lack of communication is the main reason for the generation of conflicts and misunderstanding between the family members. Communication techniques involved in family therapy helps to improve the communication skills between the family members. It is very much beneficial in understanding the feelings, emotions and character of each others. Even it can be practiced at home. But a counselor presence gives more impact to the results.
Intervention technique
Intervention technique helps to generate useful interactions between the family members for effective outcomes. A threatening talk can make the situations more badly. It is better to handle situations in smooth talk. If a parent advices his child in a lovable manner, the outcome will be even much better than a harsh shout. It only creates hate towards the parent.
With the effective advice and help from counselors of family therapy centers, perfect solutions of issues, misunderstanding and problems can be solved.
