Morphogenesis is a systems theory concept that describes structural change within a family system. Morphogenesis means “creation or beginning of shape” and describes the process that causes an organism to develop its shape. In the family system, it describes a family’s ability to grow and adapt to change while maintaining structural stability and balance. In this entry, morphogenesis is explained through the lens of systems theory. This is followed by a discussion of related family system concepts. The entry concludes with a discussion of how marriage, couple, and family counseling can be a resource for families who are struggling with changes within their family structure.
