Now I See A Family

A family describes what they found helpful in their experience at Now I See A Person Institute. They describe experiences of being welcomed into a community of healing. They describe what we call 'process ethics'. Clients and therapists mutually set the tone and agenda of their therapeutic endeavors. The guiding premise within process ethics is the co-creation of ethics that occur within relational opportunities—where the client, therapist, educational facilitator, or learner collaborate on ethical cojoint actions. (Swim et al 2001). These collaborations are designed to reflect the generation of meaning, which challenges “the taken for granted conventions of understanding,” and invites “new worlds of meaning and action” (Gergen, 1999, p. 116). This family has transcended their experiences of trauma and is united together with their hopes for the future.
