Family Therapy services at OCBF are offered through Stop Short of Addiction, Spanish program and may be accessed through other diversion programs based on a Therapist's availability.

Our Therapists are registered with the Board of Behavioral Sciences as Associate Clinical Social Workers and are supervised by a Licensed Therapist. Our Therapist's are guided by the National Association of  Social Work Code of Conduct.

Additionally, Therapists at OCBF have received specialized training in Brief Strategic Family Therapy (BSFT) which is a structured, problem-focused, directive, and practical approach to the "treatment" of conduct problems and early drug use and family problems. BSFT has been nationally recognized and endorsed by the U.S. Center for Substance Abuse Prevention and the National Institute on Drug Abuse, both in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and the Office of Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention in the Department of Justice. Training was provided by the Center for Family Studies Training Institute at the University of Miami.
