Abstract This paper is an analysis of a case study that involves the utilization of systems theory treatment in family therapy. A family assessment will be conducted using a multicontextual framework which takes into account family lifecycle, family of origin, and sociocultural factors. Bowen's therapeutic model for families is also applied as a diagnostic tool and for a suggested treatment method. This paper will include appropriate and meaningful interventions and workable solutions for conflict resolution including a flexible treatment plan. This paper reflects on the goals of the therapist and the strategies utilized to help the current family crisis. A final goal of this paper is to offer hope and tools to aid in the restructuring of future family dynamics to become healthy and balanced.
