However, as it is said there is a margin for improvement everywhere, I hope that if something needs be done to make processes better, I can put my recommendations on the table that will be on the disposal of management to consider, accept or not.

Then, the therapist challenges these structures and begins restructuring the family by offering alternative, more functional ways of behaving and communicating ("Find out more about family therapy," 2008, DMRTK).
