ABSTRACT
In the last decade of the twentieth century and the beginning of this century, the systemic approach is highlighted by its contribution to a broader conception of the problem of drug addiction: family structures and organization that favor their emergence. Thus, family therapy is understood as a socially distributed process, together with the therapeutic interest in the patterns that connect the interactions of the family system, distinguishing the systemic approach of the family from other family therapies, in which the meanings reformulated and reconstructed through The understanding of patterns of behavior and interaction in each of its members, are at the heart of the process of aid. This article intends to open a perspective of approach from the systemic therapeutic approach in family therapy to the treatment of addictions, its epistemological foundations are initially nourished from three sources: General Systems Theory of Von Bertalanffy; Cybernetics of Wiener, and The Theory of Human Communication of Watzlawick, Beavin and Jackson. Analysis and support in various primary and secondary sources: specifically contributions from the model by Stanton & Todd. The analysis of the different sources allowed us to identify coincidences and differences among the students of the subject, which highlights the central aspects of these positions. It is vital that the entire family of the patient with addiction problems go to the therapy process, since the generation of crisis within the identified patient's family is what will lead to their recovery.REFERENCES
