Systemic psychology and psychotherapy have always dealt with family and marriage relationships. Attention to the patrimonial factor and families’economic stability has howe- ver been less frequent, ignoring the data stemming from patients’ personal histo- ries, where economic factors often emerge. A family and personal history involving both economical and financial issues, often results in the implementation of avoidance and compensation strategies, as well as trauma. This work focuses on the analysis of families’ economical and financial pro- blems, and their consequences on both the individual and generational level.

Keywords: Economic stories, economic genogram, family failures, family fortunes, economic traumas, systemic therapy.
