“It is now clear to me that the family is a microcosm of the world.
To understand the world, we can study the family.
Issues such as power, intimacy, autonomy, trust, and communication skills
are vital parts underlying how we live in the world.
To change the world is to change the family.”
~ Virginia Satir, Family Therapist
