Functional Family Therapy (FFT) is a therapeutic intervention designed to address and improve the functioning of families experiencing relational difficulties or facing challenges related to adolescent behavior problems. Developed by Dr. James Alexander in the 1970s, FFT is a short-term, evidence-based approach that combines systemic family therapy principles with behavioral techniques. FFT has been applied to various issues affecting families, including delinquency, substance abuse, school-related problems, and conduct disorders in adolescents. The structured and time-limited nature of FFT makes it suitable for families seeking targeted and practical solutions within a relatively brief period. Research has demonstrated the effectiveness of Functional Family Therapy in reducing delinquent behavior, improving family functioning, and enhancing overall well-being. It is often delivered by trained therapists in individual or group settings, adapting to the unique needs of each family.
