Question 18

What is a reflecting team? How does it work? What are the benefits to using a reflecting team in family therapy?

Accepted Answer

A reflecting team is a technique used in family therapy where the therapist and other family members observe a therapy session and then step in to provide their reflections and perspectives on the family's interactions and dynamics.

The reflecting team typically consists of the therapist and a small group of observers who watch the family members interact during the therapy session. After the session, the reflecting team then takes turns sharing their observations, insights, and reflections on what they observed during the session. This can include their interpretations of the family's communication patterns, emotional dynamics, and relationship patterns.

The benefits of using a reflecting team in family therapy are numerous. First, it provides an opportunity for the family to receive feedback from multiple perspectives, including the therapist and their peers. This can help the family members gain insight into their own behaviors and relationships, as well as understand how they are perceived by others. Additionally, the reflecting team can offer new and different interpretations of the family's interactions, which can help to challenge and expand the family's understanding of their dynamics.

Furthermore, the reflecting team can also model healthy communication and feedback processes for the family, as they demonstrate how to respectfully and effectively share observations and reflections. This can help the family members learn new ways of communicating and relating to each other. Finally, the reflecting team can also help to build a sense of collaboration and support within the therapy process, as the family members feel heard and understood by a broader group of people. Overall, the use of a reflecting team in family therapy can enhance the therapeutic process and help the family members gain new insights and perspectives on their relationships.
