| Abstract: | A technique is described for eliciting information about family structure in terms of boundaries and alliances through an individual session with a child using the medium of drawing. An advantage of this approach is that the child's perspective is elicited through a medium with which the child feels familiar and at ease, which can subsequently be taken further with the child in or out of the family. |
