What is Bowen Family Systems Model? | MFT Model Reviews

What's Anya Mind, friends?
I'm back! You all have been requesting so many MFT Model reviews and I am just getting started. I've already done Structural Family Therapy and Narrative Family Therapy. Today, we'll be tackling Bowen's Theory which goes by so many different names: Extended Family Systems, Multigenerational Family Systems, and many more. What model should I review next?

I just passed my California clinical exam today! I was listening to your videos on the drive to the testing center!

[tahinilove]

I really think you should be a professor someday, too. <3

I just got accepted into Grad school & I am so happy to be subscribed to this channel. Thank you!

Thank you so much Steph! The way you simplify pages and pages of textbook material into an easy-to-understand 20-minute video has been expediting my studying tremendously! Imagine how many souls you are helping by helping those stepping into the position of the therapist!

[paulinalopez]

Currently getting my masters in family and marriage therapy and your channel is an absolute gift! Thank you!!

[TheAncestralAlchemist]

Thank you Anya! I believe that you should create your own study guide / study course for the exam. You are an amazing instructor and have been really helpful throughout my studies! ❤

Absolutely incredible! Your explanation of Bowenian Family Therapy is on point!

Girl, you've been saving my life throughout my master's degree. THANK you for making these videos! They help so so so so so much in my understanding of all of these models and the history behind them. My 4.0 gpa is because of you lol

I really appreciate these videos. I'm in an MFT course and I can't take notes because I have cerebral palsy, so I listen to these videos to help memorize the concepts. Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you so much for posting this! I'm not a therapist or a student but this helped me understand some of the disfunction in my own family. Super interesting! Keep up the good work!

Extremely thorough explanation of Bowen’s model! These kinds of videos pair great with my studies! Thank you!

[tammyhall]

This video was fantastic, thank you! NOW I feel like I can go back and read our textbook chapter and make sense of what it's saying. I'm so happy to have come across your channel!

[samtorpey]

you are amazing! thank you for the work you put into these. I love how you explain the model so clearly, even with visuals, and then also critique it using the post-modern knowledge we have today. so helpful!

[theepeacock]

These videos keep getting better and better. I learn so much from your videos.

[bettynjang]

Thank you Steph.

MFT here, I am about to take my practice licensing exam. Thank you so much for helping me study and better understand so many theories!

[natalieburger]

Thank you so much for making these!! It helps SO MUCH in preparing for the clinical MFT exam :)

[Hans]

Thank you so much!! I go to an ivy league school and they have 8 hour lectures once a week. I legit learn so much more from you in these 24 minute videos than I do in an 8 hour lecture. You teach so well and you explain these concepts so clearly

[davidgueringer]

Watching these videos just before our Family Systems final…so helpful, THANK YOU!!!

[iiiivykaiqing]

Thank you! You makes the points clearer than my lecturer who spoken 3 hours in the zoom class 😂
