NOTE: Organizations intending to implement BSFT must have certification-level training.

Below is a list of our Training services, which encompass not only various programs related to Brief Strategic Family Therapy---including the full BSFT 4-week Certification workshops--- but also Family Effectiveness Training (FET), and various additional programs.

All our Training programs are generally delivered on-site, at the client's location, in order to maximize adaptability and reduce costs.

Agencies considering Brief Strategic Family Therapy should determine whether BSFT is the best fit to local needs and conditions, as well as whether there is the necessary administrative and financial support to make the model sustainable over a period of years. Our short "BSFT Overview" programs (generally 2-3 days) provide an excellent opportunity to assess those local needs, and also to gauge if the financial and community supporting framework exist.

In the case of BSFT, to fully implement the model, agencies must train clinicians to the level of certification once the program's fit and the organization's readiness have been established.  Following certification, we at the Family Therapy Training Institute of Miami provide ongoing adherence monitoring for a period of at least three years.  After a period of consistent adherence, agencies are encouraged to identify candidates who may be able to function as BSFT Supervisors and Trainers. That is achieved through our Supervisor-Level Training program.It has been shown that developing the internal capacity to supervise increases the likelihood of sustainability and positive outcomes.

Costs vary according to the number of clinicians to be trained and/or the nature of the consultation or specific program. For an updated sample budget useful for planning purposes, please email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
