Boundary-Making Intervention Support

Boundary-Making Intervention is a practitioner-only live-session support tool. Family therapy practitioners use it to identify a targeted boundary problem, record the before and after boundary patterns, and review whether the relevant relationship or subsystem interaction shows a practitioner-recognized shift.

Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

When It Is Used

Use it when the practitioner is working live with a boundary problem and wants a concise record of before and after boundary patterns.

Partial Captures

A target-only or before-only capture is valid when the boundary problem is not yet observable or no after pattern has occurred.

Relevant Limitations

The tool does not prescribe boundary-making steps, score boundary health, or claim that a shift generalized beyond the observed interaction.

Does the tool prescribe boundary-making interventions?

No. The product supports target and before/after capture but does not provide scripts or prescribed practice steps.

Who decides whether the after pattern is healthier?

The practitioner records any interpretation. The system does not automatically determine boundary health.

Can I save a before-only capture?

Yes. Partial captures are supported when the intervention has not yet produced an after pattern.

Should multiple targeted relationships go in one capture?

No. If multiple relationships are targeted, each should be a separate capture.
