Sistematización del proceso de acompañamiento psicológico a familias monoparentales ligadas a la familia de origen, usuarias del Centro de Ayuda Psicoemocional “La Perfecta Alegría” durante los meses de noviembre a marzo de 2020.

Abstract

This document collects the learning obtained from the experience with five single-parent families who return a strong bond with the family of origin from the process of separation from the couple, which in most cases has increased the anguish in the family and has resulted in the appearance of symptoms in its members. The lack of a comprehensive approach to addressing the problems that family members present generally means that the intervention is limited to the individual and the symptom that he presents. In this study, in the single-parent families that have participated, there has been a restructuring of the marital subsystem that has caused a return to the family of origin of the parent who has been left in charge of the sons or daughters, although this return allows benefits in the beginning In the long term, it causes conflicts in the parental-child relationship, which increases the anguish in the family and a scarce differentiation of the self can be evidenced, as well as triangulations that push the appearance of a symptom in one or more members of the family system This is how the implementation of a family support project takes place, seeing the symptom as the manifest request for help from the family. To carry out the analysis of the indicated experience, the systemic current was used and the theoretical contributions of the author Murray Bowen (2007) were collected, in order to reflect on the circularity of the phenomena mentioned.
