The book introduces the essential theoretical foundations of systemic counseling and illustrates the key components with examples from counseling practice. A defining characteristic of systemic counseling is evident in the self-understanding and working method of the counselor: they limit themselves to moderating the conversation, taking responsibility for its course, but not for the content. This clearly establishes the responsibility of the client. The core of systemic counseling is the specific questioning technique. The questions are unusual and are intended to promote perspective expansion, stimulate reflection, and ultimately clarify the situation.
