Abstract

This study describes an application of the Family Art Evaluation (FAD), an instrument to assess and to construct family clinical demand. Family members arrive to the first interview with their own goals and motivations. It is the psychotherapist's function to help the family to perceive their demand along the interviews, trying to approximate individual motivations so to create a conjoint demand. It was possible, during the analysis of a case study, to identify the contribution of FAD to the family assessment process.
