Abstract

Intro: This method, which is seen as an expression of expressive therapy, aims to assist the client in resolving a dispute the person participating or receiving the therapy selects other members of the group to serve as stand-ins for his or her actual family members.  The surrogates  hear the issue of concern to the person receiving the therapy. Then the stand-ins are asked to describe how they feel or anything they think regarding the connection between the family members they are portraying and the person getting the therapy. This process frequently leads to a greater sense of understanding and empathy.Objective : To assess knowledge on the family constellation therapy among mental health Team workers.  To determine whether certain demographic factors and knowledge of the Family Constellation Therapeutic Approach are related.Methods: 40 members of the mental health team served as the study's sample size. The study employed a quantitative non-experimental descriptive research methodology.Non-Probability Convenience sampling technique was adopted.. A Self-administered structured knowledge questionnaire was used. thirty three multiple-choice items were included in a self-administered structured knowledge questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha, which was determined to determine tool dependability, was 0.82. Selected participants were given the tool after each respondent signed a permission form. Result:most respondents (75%) have low knowledge, only a small sample has intermediate knowledge (15%), and just 10% have good knowledge.Since p-values of designations of respondents  is  less (less than 0.05), it is evident that designations of respondents shows significant association with knowledge and none of the demographic variable was established to have significant association with  knowledge of Mental Health Members Conclusion: The care takers in mental health team possessed  considerable poor knowledge regarding Family constellation therapy. Despite being a relatively new treatment technique, there is a significant need for knowledge advancement.
