TRAINING OVERVIEW

"Reductions in behavior problems are related to the agency’s fidelity to the BSFT™ Program. A strong training commitment leads to great outcomes." - Joan Muir, Ph.D., Brief Strategic Family Therapy® Institute Associate Director

The BSFT™ Program workshops are only part of the ongoing training commitment that Brief Strategic Family Therapy® Institute makes to the agencies, clinics and therapists that it trains. In training therapists to competency, workshops then ongoing supervision and review and adherence ratings are required to gain BSFT™ Program site licensing. Prior to launching the workshops, a 1-day Preparatory Consultation is carried out on site, to evaluate and prepare the site for integrating the BSFT™ Program into their organization and current working methods.

If conditions are met, the Preparatory Consultation is followed by three three-day workshops (nine days total) including interactive lectures, videotape demonstrations and clinical case consultations, plus weekly group review/ audio-visual supervision/ feedback of the BSFT™ Program family therapy sessions submitted by trainees.

NOTE: Workshops consist of:

• Interactive Lectures
• Case Presentations (videos)
• Live family sessions

BSFT™ Program training curriculum is comprehensively manualized. The proprietary manual is available to organizations who agree and commit to training, supervision and licensure.
