Summary:
"No matter what your relationship with your family looks like today, your family dynamics have a tremendous influence on how you feel about yourself, show up in the world, and relate to others. When these dynamics are subconscious, we remain bound and encumbered by them. But when we bring them to the surface, we can engage our power to change, heal, and create a more meaningful life. In Your Family Revealed, psychotherapist Elaine Carney Gibson shares an accessible guide for better understanding yourself and your family so you can find healing-as an individual and a unit. Gibson illustrates the principles and meaning of family systems theory, providing real-world examples, insightful exercises, and reflection questions to help you identify and transform the hidden patterns, unwritten rules, unconscious roles, and subtle mythologies that make up your unique family dynamics. Drawing on 50 years of experience, Gibson provides a meaningful and compassionate understanding of family systems that can be constructively applied to both present and future relationships. For adults looking to better understand themselves and their families of origin, parents wanting to create and maintain healthy family ecosystems, and therapists seeking practical ways to work with clients, Your Family Revealed is an essential resource"--
