Resumo
A reflexão proposta neste estudo está centrada no entendimento de como uma
pessoa se diferencia dentro de sua família e como a terapia boweniana pode
ajudá-la no processo de diferenciação do self. Para alcançar esse objetivo
realizou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica, extraindo argumentos relevantes da
teoria de Bowen. A diferenciação, segundo Bowen, é a capacidade que o ser
humano tem de responder, evitando reagir diante de uma situação. Como as
pessoas não reagem da mesma forma, mesmo pertencendo à mesma família,
algumas conseguirão diferenciar-se e outras, não. A diferenciação do self é um
ideal a atingir, na visão boweniana, pois equivale a alcançar a identidade,
individualidade e maturação dos indivíduos. O indivíduo diferenciado tem
clareza do que seja, sabe aonde quer chegar, sabe viver em comunidade e
respeita as opiniões, age de forma autônoma e ajuda os outros a evitarem
reatividade. As pessoas e as famílias, com níveis elevados de diferenciação,
estão mais preparadas para resistir às influências sociais destrutivas. A terapia
boweniana demonstrou ser eficiente no processo de diferenciação do self,
quando ajuda o indivíduo a ter capacidade de resistir a pressões de seus
impulsos emocionais, lidar com suas emoções, não fazer triangulações e
autorresponsabilizar-se por seus atos. Segundo a teoria boweniana, o indivíduo
que busca a terapia tem mais possibilidades de melhorar seu foco no self,
diminuir sua reatividade e modificar os padrões disfuncionais, tornando-se,
assim, um indivíduo com menos possibilidades de adoecimento.
The thought that is proposed in this essay is focused at the understanding of how a person distinguishes on his/her family’s environment and how Bowen’s can help at the self differentiation. To reach this goal it was carried out a bibliographic research extracting some relevant topics of Bowen’s theory. The differentiation, according to Bowen, is a human’s ability to answer instead of reacting in some situations. Considering that people don’t react the same way, even if they come from the same family, it means some people will be able to differentiate while others won’t. The self differentiation is a goal attain, according to Bowen’s theory, because it means reaching an identity and maturation for an individual. The differentiated individual is certain about where he wants to get, he/she knows how to live on a community, respects different opinions, acts in an independent way and helps others to avoid reactivity. People and family, with elevated levels of differentiation, are more capable of resisting to social destructive influences. Bowen’s therapy proved itself to be efficient at the self differentiation process, because it helps people being able to resist to his/her emotional impulses, dealing with emotions, don’t make triangulations and charge him/herself for his/hers acts. According to bowenian theory, the individual that looks for therapy has more possibilities of getting better focus on his/hers self, decreasing his/hers reactivity and modify disfunctional patterns, becoming like that an individual with less possibilities of gettin psicholagically sick.
