This credited (6.5 for ASWB, 3.75 for NBCC), asynchronous distance learning workshop was developed for those holding Social Work, MFT, LMHC, or LPC licensure. FamilyFrame is an online self-paced training built around the core elements of Family Therapy (FT). This training uses video-based modeling with each module including brief didactic information on a selection of the FT techniques and a 5-8 minute video vignette featuring therapists re-enacting real life FT sessions with youth clients and their families. The vignette is followed by a short coding activity focusing on the recognition and rating of extensiveness of FT techniques plus immediate feedback providing evidence for which techniques were displayed. The course includes 6 modules that each take about an hour to complete.
After attending participants will be able to:
1. Become familiar with the FamiliyFrame techniques.
2. Be able to recognize and differentiate between the FamilyFrame techniques.
3. Learn to observationally code the FamilyFrame techniques on a five-point scale as they occur in mock video sessions.
