Unbalancing Support for Structural Family Therapy

Unbalancing is a practitioner-only live-session support view. Family therapy practitioners use it to stay oriented to a problem-maintaining alignment or power pattern, optionally note an observed shift, and record possible leverage for further restructuring.

Why There Is No Required Output

The supplied product treats unbalancing as a live clinician-mediated intervention with no structured output requirement.

Optional Notes

Notes can support practitioner continuity around target, shift, and continuation leverage, but the product remains usable with no notes.

Relevant Limitations

The tool does not prescribe tactics, determine clinical appropriateness, score outcomes, or replace a mapping tool when structured before/after review is needed.

Does Unbalancing provide a protocol or script?

No. The product must not prescribe tactics or exact intervention steps because those details are not supplied.

Is there a client task?

No. Unbalancing is practitioner-led live-session work with no client product workflow.

What happens if I do not enter notes?

Nothing is incomplete. The tool has no required structured output.

What is saved when there are no settings?

The fixed Unbalancing tool itself is saved as-is, even though no configuration is required.
