Abstract

Abstract This study explored the use of therapeutic metaphor among marriage and family therapists. A sample of therapists listed in the 1985 Directory of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) was surveyed. This survey sought information regarding: 1) the extent to which therapeutic metaphor is used among AAMFT membership; 2) variables associated with the use of therapeutic metaphor among those in the AAMFT; 3) sources AAMFT members draw from to generate therapeutic metaphors; 4) the manner in which AAMFT members deliver therapeutic metaphors; and 5) a collection of therapeutic metaphors from the AAMFT membership.
