Question 1

What is Bowen Family Systems Theory?

Accepted Answer

Bowen Family Systems Theory (BFST) is a relational approach to therapy that looks at how patterns from your family of origin shape your current relationships, emotions, and choices. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, BFST helps you understand intergenerational patterns, take a clearer "I-position" in your relationships, and work toward greater differentiation of self which means you cultivate the ability to stay connected to others while remaining true to yourself.
