Frida Kahlo is Sassy

The case presented here was informed by the systemic model of the Brief Therapy Center (BTC) of the Mental Research Institute (MRI) in Palo Alto, California (Fisch, Weakland & Segal, 1982; Fisch & Schlanger, 1999; Fisch, Ray & Schlanger, 2009; Weakland, Fisch, Watzlawick, & Bodin, 1974). The therapy took place in a community care program at a university clinic in Mexico City. The community that is served comes from the conurbation of the eastern zone of Mexico City – the population is of low economic resources and low socio-cultural level, with conditions of poverty and urban overcrowding.183
