Abstract
Dr. Goodrich has given us an excellent description of the two major ways that family therapy training can get introduced into psychiatric training. I want to delineate three main influences that impact on this change:
-
(a)
There is the administrative and financial support that is available and the commitment to it of the training director and the person in charge of the institution.
-
(b)
It will be influenced by the population of patients being served and the commitment of the institution to that population.
-
(c)
It will be determined by certain aspects of the ideology of the institution.
