- The Philadelphia Child and Family Therapy
Training Center, Inc. was created as an outgrowth of the Family
Therapy Training Center founded by Salvador Minuchin, M.D. in
1975 to offer training and research in family therapy and developmentally-based
approaches to child and adolescent behavioral health issues.
Most of the Center's faculty worked with Dr. Minuchin at the
Philadelphia Child Guidance Clinic as the concepts of Structural
Family Therapy were defined and promulgated during the 1970s.
From the mid-1980s to the present, Dr. Marion Lindblad-Goldberg's
model, "Ecosystemic Structural Family Therapy" has
been taught by the faculty. This more current model is a bio/developmental/systemic
trauma informed model that has received empirical support for
its effectiveness in treating children and adolescents with severe
emotional and behavioral disturbances. The Training Center's
activities include on-site and off-site programs of education,
consultation, training and supervision in an integrative ecosystemic
structural family therapy approach to interventions with children,
adolescents, couples and families. The faculty probably has trained
more family therapists than any other in the world.
