Abstract: Substance use disorders disrupt family systems by reinforcing rigid roles, shame, and dysfunctional communication. This article presents the Satir Growth Model as a systemic therapeutic framework for families affected by addiction, integrating experiential, cognitive, and somatic approaches. Drawing on research and clinical insights, it highlights interventions such as Family Mapping, the Iceberg metaphor, and Family Reconstruction to transform entrenched patterns, foster congruence, and strengthen family boundaries. Emphasizing the role of spirituality, self-worth, and parental influence, this study underscores the value of engaging the family system and advocates for further research on its application in addiction treatment.
