I Started Family Therapy!

n this discussion, imagine that you are the founder of family therapy. Chapter 5 of the text Family Therapy describes several famous individuals “…that gave birth to the field…” (Goldenberg, et al., 2017, p. 108) of family therapy. Choose one of these individuals based on their contribution to the field and conduct some online research on them.

In the discussion, assume the identity of your chosen individual, introduce yourself to the class as that individual and build an argument why you are the founder of family therapy. Explain the model you developed and why it is the basis of family therapy. For example, if I chose Salvador Minuchin, I would want to post something about Structural Family Therapy and why it is crucial for the therapy practice.

Be original in your selection, but if necessary, the perspectives from multiple contributors are allowed.
