摘要：AbstractOur research is attempting to explore the issue of the ecosystemic approach in counselling and psychotherapy in the context of a special education setting. Our hypothesis is that the recognition of the emotional needs of parents and children with special educational needs through a whole ecosystemic approach which is based on a good therapeutic relationship can cause a beneficial therapeutic outcome. Our research tried to explore how each member of the family unit experienced and reacted to stressful and anxiety provoking situations. Parents’ attitudes towards their handicapped child, like acceptance or rejection were also studied. We planned a therapeutic intervention which was based on the ecosystemic approach.
