FSI Workshop: Amie Post Masterclass - Family Systems Theory in Clinical Practice

Join Amie Post, Interim Executive Director of the Bowen Center Study of the Family (Washington DC) for this masterclass on applying Family Systems Theory in Clinical Practice.

Each attending participant will be expected to bring a case study to workshop throughout the day, applying key ideas and principles to their own case. Amie will illustrate key Family Systems Theory ideas in practice using case examples, including differentiation of self, triangles, and the multigenerational emotional process in families.

This Masterclass is open to anyone interested in the application of Family Systems Theory to clinical practice and particularly what it means to consider the family as a relationship system and what sort of resource a therapist might be in working with families in clinical practice from this approach.

It can be attended as an adjunct to the Family Systems Institute’s Annual Conference or as a stand-alone workshop.

Please note that this Masterclass is in‑person only and will be held at the Crows Nest Centre. Your ticket includes a light morning tea and lunch. If you have specific dietary requirements, we kindly ask that you bring your own food.
