Children are the country’s future,the hope of national rejuvenation,and the family’s bloodline.In recent years,the physical and mental health of preschool children has been increasingly affected,with anxiety and other negative emotions gradually penetrating from adolescents to preschoolers.Preschoolers are in a period of transition from family to society,and the behavioral and internal conditions of individuals under the influence of different family environments may vary as they enter an unfamiliar environment to develop and socialize.Therefore,addressing the anxiety of preschool children requires not only more attention,but also changes in the family environment,so that the child can grow up together with the family in a good environment and atmosphere,and develop self-confidence and an optimistic attitude in the family and society.This study uses a casework approach combined with the Sativa family therapy model to address the issue of anxiety in preschool children under the influence of an adverse family environment.Based on a review of the relevant literature,all children in kindergartens in Community A were measured utilizing a scale,and one preschooler with a high score on the scale,who was more affected by anxiety,was selected as the client of this study.Using the Satir Family Therapy model,we work with the clients and their family members to help them express their true feelings and thoughts using the Satir Iceberg Theory and related technical tools and to sculpt the communication posture of the clients’ parents using scenarios,so that they can reconstruct their family structure,improve their parenting style,strengthen their parent-child relationship,and recreate a correct and effective communication pattern.This will help alleviate the clients’ anxiety and gradually create a stable and long-term family environment suitable for children’s healthy development.This study shows that the Satir Family Therapy model is effective in alleviating the anxiety of the clients,with a comparison of the Spence Child Anxiety Inventory pre and post-tests showing that the anxiety level of the clients dropped from 67 points before the intervention to 38 points,reducing the anxiety rating from moderate to normal.In addition,improving the emotional relationship between the clients and their family members was the key to alleviating the anxiety of the preschoolers.The use of positive guidance and encouragement allowed each of them to express their true feelings and thoughts,promoting parent-child and couple bonding,changing the poor communication and coping patterns,and making the family atmosphere happy and harmonious.At the same time,the Satir Family Therapy model is a viable and necessary treatment service for the clients,using the family system as an endogenous motivation to change their poor family environment,and through the positive interaction between family members——effective communication patterns,to facilitate the healthy growth of the individual.
