This study is part of a wider research on siblings and aimed to investigate rivalry and solidarity in sibling relations in the context of the clinic with families. It is emphasized that both rivalry and fraternal solidarity are important elements to be worked on in the family psychotherapeutic process. The clinical-qualitative method of investigation was used, based on the clinical material collected during the period of family evaluation in the service of internship psychology of a private university. For the purpose of this work, we illustrate the discussion with clinical vignettes of three families, with the following family configurations: one married, one single parent and one remarried. We conclude that the presence of rivalry and solidarity between siblings is related to parental handling of conflicts in different types of family configurations.

Palabras clave : siblings; solidarity; rivalry; family conflicts; family psychotherapy.
