Assignment 5.2: Escalating CouplesName:Institutional affiliationAssignment 5.2: Escalating CouplesLooking at the situation between Steve and Christa, I would not have included children in the session because; the major issues are between the parents. It is the mother who does not like the way her husband, enters the room and begins to yell at the children. Therefore, during therapy I will focus on the parents to work out their differences first. After Steve and Christa comes to an agreement concerning, how they should handle their children, then it is them that would take the initiative to speak to the children. Christa in her observation, says, that Steve does not like finding out what triggers the quarrels that happens in their children.
