Family Systems
Chronic illness doesn't happen to one person in a family — it reorganises the whole system. This course covers family systems theory applied to illness, how roles shift and calcify, communication under sustained stress, what happens when the carer also gets ill, and how to negotiate the distribution of tasks and emotional labour before resentment builds.
