The transformative change towards the reunion of the marital model - clinical case study
Background: The family as an open system is characterized by transformative processes, in a context of complexity and contextuality. Conjugality, in particular, allows the validation of identity, legitimized in the discovery of the other and achieved through the mutual function of relational help. Its processes are associated with the continuity of a satisfactory relationship, perceived as supportive in its multiple aspects, which are interconnected.
Objective: Reflectively describe the therapeutic process, discussing new possibilities and therapeutic resources.
Methodology: Exploratory-descriptive study, using the clinical case study as an empirical and theoretical approach. The technique used was analysis centered on the context of the action and a set of resources centered on the strengths and potential of the family were used in the co-constructed therapeutic process as strategies aimed at solving and changing the system. Results and Conclusion: Integrative strategies of different theoretical and operational references were developed and the transformative change of the couple made it possible to control their relationship, differentiate with the extended family and decide on the itinerary of their development.
