Description:
This presentation will utilize Bowen Family Systems Theory as a way of thinking about families chronically engaged with the legal system for juvenile delinquency and criminal behavior. The evolution of thinking from a symptom focus to a systems orientation will be described based upon 35 years of clinical observation. Particular emphasis will be placed on the reciprocity between the families and the social service agencies charged with regulating social behavior. How the externalized emotional process of the family reflected in delinquent behavior can be replicated in relationships between the family and social agencies will be examined. The presentation will conclude with a discussion about how the emotional process of the social agency can either bind anxiety or contribute to further regression. A licensed social worker in private practice in Traverse City, Michigan, Mr. Sullivan has presented nationally on his work with families with juvenile delinquency and criminal behavior that is based in Bowen theory. This will be his first WPFC Clinical Forum presentation.
