Family
Therapy Training, CHA
Family
Therapy is often a core component of any successful psychiatric
treatment of a child or adolescent. The guidelines of the
Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education, the Practice
Parameters of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent
Psychiatry, and the recommendations of the Group for the Advancement
of Psychiatry Committee on the Family, all underscore the
role of working with families. To this end, the Child and
Adolescent Training Program at Cambridge Health Alliance offers
a wide range of Family Therapy training opportunities. These
opportunities aim to provide residents with a basic conceptual
understanding of family therapy as well as a range of experiences
across treatment settings with different kinds of families
and family issues.
In the
first year, residents are required to participate in a year-long
seminar in Family Therapy which introduces Family Therapy
theory, assessment, and intervention. The seminar consists
of didactics and observation of family consultations using
a one-way mirror. The focus is on acquiring basic knowledge,
skills, and attitudes in working with family systems. This
seminar is taught by Jill Harkaway, Ed.D. and Carol Becker,
Ph.D.
In the
second year an elective advanced seminar is available. This
seminar, taught by Jill Harkaway and Cynthia Mittlemeier,
Ph.D., provides clinical training in Family Therapy through
case consultation and/or live supervision using a one-way
mirror. In addition, an elective in clinical training, utilizing
live supervision with a one-way mirror is available to second
year residents. Case supervision is also offered by all members
of the faculty.
Residents
also participate in inpatient Family Consultations conducted
on both the Child Assessment Unit and the Adolescent Assessment
Unit, by Barbara Okun, Ph.D. and Cynthia Mittlemeier, Ph.D.
