Understanding Tension within Families during Quarantine

We wanted to connect with our community and emphasize the importance of focusing on our well-being and being patient with each other during this quarantine. Our sheltering in place efforts are making an impact, however, we have an indeterminate amount of time left to isolate and keep ourselves healthy.

​Considering the amount of time families are quarantined at home together, we thought it would be helpful to share a tool we use in our therapy and group sessions to understand tension within ourselves and between family members. We refer to this tool as Chain Analysis. This analysis, or awareness tool, is a helpful way of observing how our internal experience impacts how we behave.
