The Multi-epistemological Systemic Therapist: A Qualitative Study

The purpose of this article is to explore how experienced systemic therapists who work in child and adolescent mental health position themselves within epistemology. The article is based on a grounded theory re-analysis of 12 qualitative in-depth interviews with six experienced systemic family therapists and fieldwork observations of the same therapists. The specific research question for this article is: How do you position yourself as a systemic therapist in child and adolescent mental health care in relation to epistemology? The analysis identified the overarching finding: the multiepistemological therapist. The experienced systemic therapists’ descriptions of their epistemological stance are discussed alongside the context of child and adolescent mental health care and systemic therapy’s theory and practice.
