VIDEO: Structural Family Therapy Training

If you're looking for real-world Structural Family Therapy training, you're in the right place. In this video, I share what I wish someone had taught me when I was starting out — not just theory, but the practical, step-by-step tools for helping families in distress.

I'm Oliver Drakeford — a licensed marriage and family therapist, certified group psychotherapist, and creator of this course. After nearly a decade working in residential treatment and private practice, I've developed a clear, structured method for applying family systems theory in live sessions — even when things get messy.

This video gives you a sneak peek into my Structural Family Therapy Training Course, where you’ll learn how to:

• Assess hierarchy, boundaries, and structure in the first session (without asking directly)

• Use family mapping to organize chaos into a clear framework

• Apply interventions like circular questioning, spontaneous enactments, and the proposal method

• Collect meaningful data and spot predictable family patterns

• Feel confident and in control — even when parents argue or teens storm out

Whether you're new to family work or just want better tools for what you’re already doing, this training is grounded in reality. It's not a collection of abstract ideas — it's a working blueprint based on what actually works with real families.
