Summary of FFT Phases*
Engagement & Motivation / The therapist's focus is on immediate responsiveness to family needs and maintaining a strength-based relational focus. Activities include high availability, telephone outreach, appropriate language and dress, contact with as many family members as possible, "matching" and a respectful attitude.
Behavior Change / The goals of this phase include creating a positive motivational context by decreasing family hostility, conflict and blame, increasing hope and building balanced alliances with family members. Therapists work to change the meaning of family relationships by emphasizing possible hopeful alternatives, maintaining a nonjudgmental approach and conveying acceptance and sensitivity to diversity.
Generalization / The goal of this phase is to identify the patterns of interaction within the family to understand the relational "functions" or interpersonal payoffs for individual family members' behaviors. The therapist focuses on eliciting and analyzing information pertaining to relational processes, and assess each dyad in the family using perception and understanding of relational processes.
