What is Structural Family Therapy? | MFT Models

What's Anya Mind?
For many of my subscribers, it's the woes of understanding systemic therapy and its many models. For my first model review, we'll be discussing Minuchin's Structural Family Therapy Model! Did you find this video helpful? Which model should I do next?

    Hi Steph! I'm a newer faculty with NCU's MFT Doctoral Programs and you're a bit of a legend here...I thought I'd take a moment to check out what all the buzz is about, and sure enough, your reputation precedes you. This is quality stuff and I LOVE that you're creating these free resources for folks interested in MFT--and doing so in such a fresh, engaging manner. Appreciate the work you're doing--keep doin' work! 💪

I had two weeks to go and was growing very frustrated because I didn't feel like I was getting anything and then I came across your videos and I felt like a lightbulb went off in my head. I just want to say Thank you so much and GOD Bless you in everything you are doing.

    I am studying for my licensing exam as a psychologist, and I have been struggling with the family therapy questions on my practice exams. I've had pretty limited contact with family therapy models, and the descriptions I have been prepping with are super bland. The videos in this series are SO helpful - you make the theories come to life. I'm definitely going to be doing some more reading to further explore this world... once I've recovered from this exam hah

    Hey Steph Anya. I love, love, love your videos! They are super helpful for my understanding of essential concepts I am learning about in my Master's program. I wanted to reach out to you because I've noticed that some of your videos have background music going while you are talking. For those of us who struggle with hearing loss, background music can make it really difficult to follow what is being said, even when captions are available. Listening fatigue kicks in as one strives to follow and fully understand the words that are heard and read THROUGH the additional noises going on at the same time. I wouldn't want to miss out on all that you could teach me due to this issue. So, I just thought I'd bring it to your attention and hope for the best. As always, thanks for sharing your wisdom with us!

    I greatly appreciate your knowledge as well as your insight on how the family structure was handled during the 1960's-1970's year period....I don't exactly know if it went over my head but during this period the man of the household was primarily a Veteran who served in the Armed Forces during the Korean War as well as The Vietnam War era.....Those individuals suffered a tremendous amount of PTSD which affected the infrastructure of the common, American household...just to make a note of that my dear.

    Thanks for doing this video. I am rewatching it but it feels like I am watching it for the first time. This model is the one that always gets me and on the practice tests I've done I always struggle with this one and strategic. I'll be taking my AMFTRB exam next week so this video along with the other resources I am using, is helpful.
