The family media of choice is the Bradys, and one of its favorite family programs known as the Brady Bunch. This program is enriched with family issues, and exonerate about family that was in turmoil in the father was gay, and the like to hit his mum. The revelation of this family’s discourse is a great awakening to solving family endeavors and cautions against the risk of playing a ball in the house. Indeed, this media house offers numerous stories on family matters. The main theory depicted by this school of counseling refers to both existential and humanistic theoretical approaches.
Spiritual beliefs fall in the wide scope of existential theory, and they determine what one speaks and behaves. These beliefs are critical to offering sustainable solution and solace to the soul. For example, the worldview of a client might change from viewing things on a negative perspective to adopting positive viewpoints etched on religious precepts. This platform will thus change the client’s worldviews and embrace a life of positivity (Capuzzi, & Gross, 2011). Besides, the counselor could as well adopt the precept as a platform to steering success in his or her counseling session with the client. A counselor who holds religious and spiritual beliefs would sue this platform to influence the mindset and viewpoint of the client, who instead of doing something harmful to his or her life, would embrace the idea of peace (Alexander, & Harman, 1988). Like in this story, a father who is gay and violent son was transformed by a mother who kept soliciting for existential approach to quell her family’s behaviors.
The counselor’s intervention in this film that would exhibit his theoretical intervention refers to his apparent invocation of living a positive life by exonerating a religious life. The invocation of God’s name during the counseling event is an apparent exhibit that the counselor held an existential viewpoint to his counseling session (Capuzzi, & Gross, 2011).
Existential theoretical viewpoint was fully articulated in this media stream, and it met its intended purpose on the client. The effectiveness of this session attribute to the change in the behaviors of the clients, and the eventual solace attained. One insight that I gained from viewing this media relates to the ostensible power of existential theory in a counseling session.
