Inspite of rapid development of new techniques of systemic family therapies, method of recording the therapy process is not yet explored enough. The author created a new method of recording the process of therapeutic interviews, based on the tow basic concepts of "Frame" and "Grallary", first proposed by B. P. Keeney (1992).
The author was in search of more effective method of recording therapeutic process than simple verbal documentations. If was expected that a new media of recording may shed light on the therapeutic process itself. The author’s effort was firts materialized as "Hyoki-system" (1995a. b. c.), which was improved and named "note-system".
The Note-system is composed of three sub-systems of illustrative tables. The first series of tables depict and organize problems and corresponding interventions.
The second table series illustrate therapeutic moves by interventions and corresponding change of so-called "Gallary" comprising definitions of problems.
The third table series show change of Gallary in terms of the transition of time. A family therapy can be illustrated in a wider perspective by the Note-system. The Note-system may stimulate the therapist to open up a new insight and can be effectively used tools of education and consultations.
A case example of a family with a school refusal IP was presented with discussion of practical value of the Note-system.
