Abstract

By using an integrative family therapy model, this article addresses the multiple problems a stepfamily may encounter. The stepfamily is a rapidly growing family structure in modern society. The stepfamily's unique problems, for instance, life-cycle discrepancies and loyalty conflicts, begin when they start functioning together as a family. The problematic foundation of a stepfamily and its unique composition require a specific therapeutic method that will take the complexities of those families into account. The researchers used the integrative family therapy model of David C. Olsen. This model is constructed out of six accredited methods in the field of family therapy: the problem solving, structural, interactional, cognitive, multigenerational and object-relation methods
