Course Description:
This course is an introduction to a generalist approach to intervention with families. In this course, students will learn
about the family work approach and related skills including engagement, assessment, intervention and termination.
Intervention with individuals will be contrasted with a family systems approach which views human behaviours as
expressions of family interactions, dynamics and structures. Family dynamics will be explored as factors in the
development and maintenance of various types of problems that present for professional help.
