Deliberate practice exercises allow students and trainees to rehearse systemic family therapy (SFT) skills to develop basic competence and hone their own personal therapeutic style so that they can better help families and couples.

These exercises present opportunities for two or more trainees to role-play couples or family therapy sessions with one trainee acting as the therapist and the others acting as clients, rotating through these roles under the guidance of a supervisor. The trainee playing the therapist improvises appropriate and authentic responses to a series of client statements organized into three difficulty levels--beginner, intermediate, and advanced--that reflect common problems and concerns encountered by SFT practitioners.

The first 12 exercises each focus on a single skill, such as building a therapeutic alliance, deescalating conflicts, establishing rules and boundaries, and addressing diversity issues. These are followed by two comprehensive exercises--an annotated transcript and free-form mock therapy sessions--in which trainees integrate these essential skills into a single SFT session.

Step-by-step instructions guide participants through the exercises, identify criteria for mastering each skill, and explain how to monitor and adjust difficulty. Guidelines to help trainers and trainees get the most out of training are also provided.
