| Abstract: | In existential family therapy, it is believed that Viktor Frankl's dimensional ontology is a useful way to understand the different levels of depression that are important in both family assessment and family treatment. This article reviews Frankl's dimensional ontology, its usefulness for existential family treatment, the  must, can, and ought levels of family depression, and presents clinical material illustrating the described existential family treatment approach. |
