Journal History
The Satir International Journal was established in January 2013, spearheaded by Dr. Steve Bentheim in the role of editor. It was initially titled the Satir Family Therapy and Counselling Journal. A year later, in January 2014, the journal underwent a rebranding, adopting its final title and broadening its scope to cover a more diverse range of subjects, extending beyond the confines of counselling and family therapy. The journal adhered to a continuous publication model, issuing one volume per year, and was recognized for its swift publication process. Regrettably, the Satir International Journal ceased publication in April 2018.
Focus and Scope
The Satir International Journal provided research and applications aimed at enhancing individual mental health, and fostered the healthy growth of families, groups, and organizations within society. Its objectives included therapeutic communication, equality, spirituality, ethical decision-making, and global diversity. The journal was sponsored by the Department of Educational Psychology and Leadership Studies at the University of Victoria, located in British Columbia, Canada. The journal expressed gratitude for being situated on the Coast Salish territory, where Virginia Satir conducted graduate workshops at the “Haven” on the nearby Gabriola Island.
