The Addams Family: A Theoretical View

This is for a Marriage and Family Therapy Theory class:

For this paper, you will be asked to select a movie family – I HAVE CHOSEN THE ADDAMS FAMILY. Watch the movie from a clinical lens. Then, using 3 theoretical perspectives , explain how you might assess and intervene with this family.  make sure that systemic thinking is evident in your work! This is not a paper from an integrative perspective; therefore, you should address each theoretical perspective individually. Your goal is to explore how different theories might be applied to the same family. Papers should be written in past tense as though you were reporting on your own successful clinical work with this family. Papers should be 6-7 double-spaced pages using 1-inch margins, and 12-point Times New Roman font. Please edit your papers for grammar, spelling errors organization and flow.
