Marriage Family Therapy Model Analysis

Taking the time to Reflect
There are array of Marriage Family therapy model approaches which has different objective in each application within each model. Each model is specifically designed to target the problems effectively for achieving the ultimate results. Throughout this course I have learned different models concepts and there approaches. In learning the different models in this course, I have discovered that there are a couple of models that probably suit my personal style.
I had the assumption that solution-focus brief therapy model was my personal style, but after learning other models approaches I believe there other therapy models that can fit my personal style. One of the main reason why I had chosen solution-focus brief therapy model is because it help the client to focus on solution to overcome issues and to move toward having positive results. The solution-focus concepts is geared toward a positive and
strength based approach for the client to deal with his/her issues.
Now I believe through my learning that there are several models that would suit my personal style.
One of the model I believe that suit me is the structural family therapy. Because its aim is to restructure the family system by realigning boundaries and other components to promote positive growth and resolve issues. This model focuses on strengths, not viewing families being dysfunctional but people who needs help in expanding their method of interaction pattern, to adjust to their ever-changing developmental and contextual demand (Gehart, 2014, p.125).
Another model I believe would suit my personal style is experiential family therapy models. One of the Satir human growth model because it focuses on family communication using warmth and support. Also, experiential family therapy focuses more on the affective or the emotional layer in the same interactions while attending to the client behavior as well as the cognition (Gehart, 2014, p.165). I think there are other evidence-based approach which line up with my personal style these are just
two.
One of the ways that how I am planning to introduce change in therapy by evaluating self to insure that I present or display the evidence of sincere concern with each client. Also, to develop a relationship with my client to make him/her to feel comfortable to talk about their issues, while providing an active listing ear responding in appropriate and empathic way. Establishing a relationship is one of the many major component for laying the groundwork in helping the client. I understand that a therapist need to have an array of social skills to become successful in joining with families, especially when a client has to work with different culture opposite of the therapist (Gehart, 2014, p.129).
In envision my role as a therapist in a professional way being patient, non-judgmental establishing a client therapist relationship. As a therapist, I would be eager to actively listen to the client to help him/her with the knowledge and ability to implement the model approach to help resolve the client issues. I envision conceptualizing the communication and behavior process to devise a hypothesis toward developing the building blocks to create resolution process to achieve a positive result. Also, I envision my role a being competent family therapist.
The question that am curious to ask clients during a therapeutic intervention is what he or she would expect to get out of receiving the therapy? I believe this is a good question because it tells the therapist does him or her looking for him/herself or for someone else. Also, it would give the therapist a science whether or not if the client is really serious about receiving the necessary help. There are other open-ended questions that will help the therapist to discover information about the client that would aid in assisting the client with his/her difficulties, especially during the conceptualization phase.
