Ivan Boszormenyi Nagy introduced with his contextual therapy a challenging theory into the
world of family therapy. It is rooted in a relational ethical perspective on human relations
and shifts the focus of therapy from pathology to evoking reciprocal care and a genuine dialogue,
based on the conviction that inter-human relations are resources for individual growth
and health. This article presents a research project on the practice of the founder himself, to
describe how the principles of the contextual theory and therapy can be integrated into concrete
therapeutic interventions. Using the Constant Comparison Method, the authors found
six clusters of interventions representing methodical elements through which Ivan Boszormenyi-
Nagy applies the paradigm of his approach.
