Marital and Family Therapy

Category - Treatment

You are seeking to do family therapy with one person. Sounds strange, but Bowen pulled it off. When working with the individual, one must attempt to find out:
  1. How fast the individual drives, given tendency for road rage
  2. Whether or not any emotional fusion exists between him and other family members
  3. Where the triangle begins and ends
  4. How much it matters when individual preferences are called out
Explanation
Answer - B - Emotional fusion is defined as two people whose emotional lives are fused together with regard to their family relationship, developmental stage, or triangulation. Any two members of a family could be emotionally fused and if they are, individual therapy will prove to be a bit more difficult without first resolving the fusion. On the other hand, individual therapy is what could assist in moving through the fusion. Regardless, it would be the basis of how successful individual work might be.
