Some experiences through family-psychotherapy for psychotics in Japan.
My experiences of family-psychotherapy for psychotics in Japan, are discussed. The emphasis is put on the emotional problems which had been elicited among the hospital staffs; nurses, psychologists, and social workers. Applying a new type of the therapy, such as family-psychotherapy, has important factors beside the theoretical effect of them. We divided the course of family therapy into four clinical stages, from fragmented way of communication in the family to integrated one. My experiences which I have had in Japan, where the psychiatry itself has had a organic orientation, seem to be very helpful for those countries where the family-psychotherapy is not popular yet.
