5 Types Of Circular Questions For Your Next Family Therapy Session

This week I get into circular questioning, the approach I reach for most when I want a family to stop handing out blame and start noticing the pattern they're all standing inside.
I sort it into five types, something I wish someone had laid out for me years earlier, and I talk through the one thing that separates a question that moves a family from one that only sounds clever. Oh and I include lots of examples of circular questions too.
It holds up just as well in couples and individual work, which is half of why I find it so useful. Have a listen, and tell me if you want the running list of questions I still bring into sessions. Some of my other family therapy worksheets PDFS here
