Received: September 22, 2017 Accepted: November 3, 2017 Available online: November 8, 2017 doi:10.11114/ijsss.v5il2.2778 URL: https://doi.org/10.11114/ijsss.v5il2.2778 Abstract Satir's model (1916-1988) is not theoretical; it is a practical model; she has developed it by applying herself. It does not include stereotyped shapes in human relationships, but dynamic, variable applications. According to Satir, the form is not the method itself', the method is motion; this is a dynamic phenomenon. It constantly changes and tries to remove certain bans that have examined itself and prevented it from changing. A person who grows in a constantly restricted, prohibited environment since childhood cannot fully demonstrate his capacity without being aware of his potential. Such a result is manifested only in a limited environment where development is hindered. The change will take place after the problem is recognized. The goal is to increase self-confidence in the family, to nurture or support better choices, to increase responsibility, and to improve compliance within the family or between people. This study was carried out by using the copy of Satir's book, which was originally called The Conjoint Family Therapy and translated into Turkish by Selim Ali Yeniqeri as Basic Family Therapy and published in Istanbul by Beyaz Yayinlari in 2016. Keywords: Virginia Satir, therapy, model, education 1. Introduction The term therapy, in French the th6rapie, refers to the treatment of diseases such as sickness, disability, or disorder in certain ways (http://tdk.gov.tr/index.php?option=com bts&arama=kelime&guid=TDK.GTS.58641e853e9479.95508261). In other words, therapy is the name of the process initiated for people to reach their own resources, realize the solutions and pass the action. Family therapy refers to methods and techniques for treating disorders in the family structure. The aim of therapy is to recognize the individual or the family's self; and to make people to be aware of their own merits, power and structure. As it is stated in the proverb, those fish are in the sea, but they do not know the sea or the fish that float in the water are not aware of the water; like this, it may not be possible for people to be aware of the relationships they live in. The individual has to be with others during his/her life. There is the influence of social development that the individual in establishing good relations with family, community, others and in places such as street, workplace etc.; in conformity with social rules and in developing these rules; perform public duties and use of its rights. An individual who has not been able to achieve social development by age is under societal oppression because it exhibits societal unapproved disorders and imperfections in its behavior. At this rate of social pressure, the individual is unhappy and discordant (Bayaran, 1994). It is attempted to be aware of the network of these relationships with therapy or family therapy. The goal of therapy is to relax people and make them more compatible whether you are an individual, a group, or a family. Family therapy refers to the meeting sessions that all members of problematic families attended. Family members reveal the problems in the family by their own perspectives. Techniques used in family therapy provide access to intervention goals. Choosing the right one among these techniques is at the initiative of the therapist. Models are usually based on updating. Updating means to put the encountered problems in front of people. From Ibn Sina (980-1037) (see Yildirim, 1986: 341-344), those who deal with human problems and discomfort start by first updating the living/encountered problems. They do this with different methods (See Farley et al, 2003, Ambrisso et al., 2001). Satir was accomplished this by using family chronology and a family communication pattern. To do this, she created her own training and therapy model. The topic of the article is about 72
