Brief Family Therapy May Lead to Deep Personality Change
Abstract
A 15½-year-old boy with a falsetto voice and his family were treated by brief family therapy. The pace and direction of the patient’s overall ego integration coincided closely with constant and rapid alteration of his conception of the human body. This change was clearly seen in his drawings done over a period of time. The authors suggest that deep personality changes may follow brief family therapy.
