The common factors paradigm in couple and family therapy has gained popularity over the past several decades, leading many therapists to refer to themselves as common factors family therapists. Despite this, no consensus exists on what it means to be a common factors family therapist, or if such a designation even makes sense given that the common factors paradigm is not a model. Synthesizing the existing common factors literature, a case is made for the designation "common factors informed family therapist," and the following six core principles are outlined that characterize this designation: (1) sees overlap among theories; (2) passionate about theory, not a theory; (3) client centered; (4) monitors hope and the therapeutic alliance; (5) views clients as people rather than objects; and (6) prioritizes healing over therapy. Each of the concepts is discussed in depth, and clinical implications are provided.
在过去几十年中，夫妻和家庭治疗中的共同因素范式越来越受欢迎，导致许多治疗师自称为共同因素家庭治疗师。尽管如此，对于什么是共同因素家庭治疗师，或者是否存在这样的指定，因为共同因素范式不是一种模式，并没有达成共识。综合现有的共同因素文献，提出了“受共同因素启发的家庭治疗师”的指定，并概述了以下六个核心原则，这些原则是这一指定的特征：（1）看到理论之间的重叠；（2）对理论充满热情，而不是理论本身；（3）以客户为中心；（4）监测希望和治疗联盟；（5）将客户视为人而不是物；（6）优先考虑治疗效果而不是治疗本身。每个概念都进行了深入讨论，并提供了临床意义。
