Work with the family has an important place in psychotherapy. It is built on the classical lines of psychotherapy with adaptation to the psychological impact on several people or a social group. Spousal therapy is also an element of family therapy. The family is of great importance in the formation of a mature person. Therefore, family and marital therapy are crucial for the human community. In the context of an increasing number of divorces, such therapy makes it possible to solve intricate and complex family and marital relations. The therapist becomes a mediator between family members and helps them learn new ways of communication. Especially those families and marriages who cannot cope with conflicts and problems on their turn to a specialist.
The key consideration is extracting sensitive information more carefully, such as cheating. The code has eight principles, such as the responsibility to the patient, the principle of confidentiality, professional competence and legal dimension, liability to students and persons undergoing supervision, the obligation to research participants, the responsibility to the profession, financial mechanisms, and advertising. Therapy is often the last opportunity to improve relationships and allows you to maintain a marriage, and therefore the whole family structure. Family therapy usually also affects children, sometimes at a very young age. In family and marital therapy, in contrast to individual therapy, the specialist must take care of the well-being of not only one person but also of all family members, including the most vulnerable. The therapist must understand the complexity of working with the family and the great responsibility that rests with it when conducting therapy. In addition to the norms of the code, the therapist in his or her activities, including emerging ethical dilemmas, must be guided by ethical principles and take care of the welfare of clients.
