Systemic Psychotherapy

Starting from the notion that people’s experiences and experiences are directly related and interact with the environment, relationships, the broader social, economic, and cultural context, systemic psychotherapy emphasizes the various frameworks within which psychological problems are created and maintained. The approach, as an umbrella under which a set of therapeutic models is located, chooses to address any psychological difficulty outside of definitions, limitations, and diagnostic labels. It facilitates the individual to identify/create/develop functional solutions and highlights their possibilities and strengths, illuminating the resources and assets they already possess.

In the systemic view, each experience and problem is approached within the relational and environmental complexity in which it arises. Psychological difficulties and symptoms are not treated as a consequence of endogenous processes and personal failures of the individual, but as a result of a complex network of interacting relationships and frameworks in which they are meaningful.

Sessions aim to create a communication framework that allows for a re-examination and reflection on existing conditions and already tested solutions, the exploration of alternative possibilities, and the development of new coping strategies. The therapist is seen as part of the system and not as an external expert who provides solutions, but rather as a collaborator who helps the individual discover their own solutions and possibilities.
