SCHAEFER ALARCON, Hardy. RELATIONAL HOPE: A SYSTEMIC CONCEPTION OF HOPE AS THERAPEUTIC CHANGE FACTOR IN BRIEF THERAPY. Ajayu [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.2, pp.326-340. ISSN 2077-2161.

Hope is considered as a common and curative factor in psychotherapy and with many benefits in general health, however, its conceptualization is limited and mainly cognitive and individual in the investigation of results and processes in psychotherapy, and since family therapy there is few developments, finding the concept of reasonable hope, which incorporates the relational dimension, but is limited in some aspects. Therefore, it is necessary to broaden the conception of the change factor towards a relational dimension, since it involves contextual, historical and relational variables, emphasizing its collaborative nature. On the other hand, the conceptualization of the therapeutic relationship from the post-structuralist clinical practices in systemic therapy presents coherence, and from these same models and their theoretical foundations, it is possible to extend the conceptualization of hope towards a collaborative dimension. In these mentioned practices, relational hope is present forming a framework with the therapeutic relationship, configuring an axis or core of "Hope-relationship", which would be at the center of the brief models of the systemic tradition. This work is a bibliographical revision that is oriented to the conceptual and theoretical elaboration, being based as much on articles of the last years, approximately 10 years, and basic texts on the field.
