| Popis: | From a national survey of family therapy and drug abuse treatment, diverse methods of treating families from varying ethnic/minority backgrounds have been derived in an effort to integrate both family and environmental systems theory—an “ecological” family therapy approach. A number of cross-cultural approaches to working with addict families are described and a systems framework is used to discuss the various treatment strategies. Conclusions are drawn about the major family factors which transcend cultural differences. Particularly relevant to all cultures are conflicts regarding loss, separation, parental discipline and dependency issues. |
