Understanding the Stages of Functional Family Therapy
FFT typically includes three stages: engagement, behavior change, and generalization. In the engagement phase, therapists build trust and assess family dynamics. Behavior change focuses on improving interactions, while generalization prepares families to maintain progress long-term. At Lake Counseling, we guide families through each FFT stage with care and expertise. Our structured yet flexible approach ensures every family receives the personalized support they need to grow, adapt, and succeed in their relationships.
