Why Structural-Strategic Theory is Critical to Your Family Trauma Practice


How do you integrate this knowledge to move from treating the traumatized child to treating the traumatized family?

You’ve been taught how to work with individuals.

You’re most likely familiar with Cognitive Behavior, Attachment Theory, and/or Psychodynamic Theory. But how do you integrate this knowledge to move from treating the traumatized child to treating the traumatized family?

At the Family Trauma Institute, we believe the answer is Structural-Strategic Theory.

Understanding Structural-Strategic theory helps trauma specialists:

  • Find the root causes of trauma without long hours of therapy
  • Heal families without painful reliving of memories
  • Restructure families without continued reliance on medication

Structural-strategic mapping quickly identifies the root causes of trauma. When clinicians give family members clear strategic directives (FST Techniques) to realign family structure, families eliminate dysfunction and begin to heal.

Listen to this clip to learn how and why great theory will benefit your practice.

    Greetings from Carolina! I’m bored to death at work so I decided to check out
    your blog on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the knowledge you provide here and can’t
    wait to take a look when I get home. I’m shocked at how quick your blog loaded on my phone ..
    I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, awesome site!

  2. Unquestionably believe that which you stated.

    Your favorite justification appeared to be on the net the
    easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get irked while people consider
    worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top
    and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal.

    Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

  3. Good day I am so delighted I found your site, I really found you by
    error, while I was browsing on Google for
    something else, Regardless I am here now and would just like to say
    many thanks for a marvelous post and a all round exciting blog (I
    also love the theme/design), I don’t have time to read through it all at the moment but I have book-marked it
    and also added in your RSS feeds, so when I have time I will be back to read a great deal
    more, Please do keep up the awesome jo.

  4. First of all I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
    I was interested to find out how you center yourself
    and clear your mind before writing. I have had a tough time clearing my
    mind in getting my thoughts out. I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems
    like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost
    simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?

    Cheers!

  5. Howdy! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a collection of volunteers
    and starting a new initiative in a community in the same niche.

    Your blog provided us useful information to work on. You have done a extraordinary
    job!

  6. Hmm it seems like your website ate my first comment (it
    was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and
    say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well
    am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing.
    Do you have any helpful hints for beginner blog writers?
    I’d certainly appreciate it.

    Superb blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring
    writers? I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little
    lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a
    paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely overwhelmed ..
    Any suggestions? Thanks!
