The systemic and strategic approach

It is based on an intervention method developed by the School of Palo Alto and developed by its current research centers. Its specificity is:

• to know how to apprehend the complexity of human relations and bring a global vision to psychological and relational problems. 

• to be strategic in terms of relational regulation by relying on 2 techniques that are problem solving and strategic communication, which make it possible to obtain effective and lasting operational effects in terms of problem solving.
