From chapter 14 of your textbook, describe three of the following family systems therapy interventions: joining, boundary setting, unbalancing, reframing, ordeals, paradoxical interventions, and enactments.
Describe the following only so far as you feel comfortable sharing: If you divided your family of origin into subsystems, who would be in the parental subsystem? The sibling subsystem? What rules and boundaries were set around each subsystem? Were the boundaries ever crossed? By whom and with what result? What were common interactional sequences in your family? Who had the power in your family, and how was it exercised? Who was aligned with whom, and what did they use that alignment to achieve?
This discussion post should be a minimum of 500 words. While only one source (your textbook) is required, it might be helpful to find a second scholarly article to help you discuss the information.
