AB - This article presents a way to conceptualize families when operating from a structural family therapy orientation (Minuchin, 2012; Minuchin & Fishman, 1981). This quick guide to case conceptualization entails utilizing 6 Ps: problem, process, pattern, proximity, power, and possibilities. Two cases (one from Dr. Salvador Minuchin and one from the author) where the therapist functioned from a structural perspective will be presented to describe how this method can be used to deconstruct what occurred or to help orient the therapist to understand the family's functioning and potential pathways in therapy.
