Description
x*NEWER EDITION NOW AVAILABLE: This is the retired first edition of the study guide. "I passed my exam the first time " -Amazon Customer 5-Star Review "Absolutely worth it. The way the information is presented by Dr. Volini is easy to understand yet comprehensive. Learning how to think about things from the various systemic perspectives, and then learning to answer the exam questions appropriately has already increased my practice exam scores. I'm thankful, and feel more competent and ready to take the MFT national exam. Thank you Dr. Volini " -MFT Licensing Exam Customer Everything you need to know in a condensed and structured independent study guide specifically designed to prepare you in successfully passing the National Licensing Exam in Marital and Family Therapy. This innovative approach to effective and efficient preparation is tailored to the new format of the National Exam which is now far more application based than knowledge based. As other manuals contain up to 1,200 pages of text covering the entire field of Family Therapy in great detail, this author has condensed the same information down to the bare essentials of what is needed to pass the exam. This is not meant to serve as a thorough review of everything you already learned in graduate school; instead, it will review such knowledge in ways congruent to what the exam will measure. The philosophy of this manual was to teach you how to pass the exam as opposed to reviewing the textbook. The context contains a review of each primary theory to Marriage & Family Therapy as organized by the knowledge domains stated by the Association for Marital & Family Therapy Regulatory Board. To further grasp how these theories are applied to families (keeping in line with the application-based nature of the licensing exam), the author has provided a glossary containing narratives of each approach applied to the same family vignette. To further differentiate this manual from the other available options, Part I contains an overview of the exam, test-taking strategies and study techniques to ensure that your preparations are effective and efficient. It will also move beyond theory and into the other knowledge domains covered on the exam as well as provide a thorough glossary of all key terms and primary interventions labeled by the theory in which they belong. Finally, the manual includes a Practice Exam with correct answers stated along with a rationale as to why each answer was correct or incorrect. Contents include: Part I: About the Exam, Test-Taking Strategies & Study Techniques. Part II: The History of the Field of Marriage & Family Therapy. Part III: The Theory & Practice of Marriage & Family Therapy. Part IV: Clinical Considerations & Concepts Part V: The Practice Exam Walk into test day feeling confident and prepared after completing this Independent Study Guide.

xDr. Lucas Volini is a licensed marriage and family therapist and approved supervisor through the Minnesota Regulatory Board of Marriage and Family Therapy. Holding a doctorate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Argosy University and master of arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Saint Mary's University, he maintains professional membership in the American Family Therapy Academy, American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, and the National Council on Family Relations. Dr. Volini is also a board member for the Minnesota Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. Currently, Dr. Volini is the Clinical Director and Associate Program Director for the M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy program at Saint Cloud State University with a primary responsibility to oversee the clinical training requirements of the program, teach core courses, and advance his body of research. Dr. Volini's research focuses on the development of Global Systems Theory as the foundation to Global Family Therapy, an emerging approach of individual, couple, and family therapy that focuses on the interactional dynamics of cultural worldviews and self-esteem within and between family and social systems. Ultimately, Dr. Volini hopes to use this approach in reconciling conflict between various cultural groups. His research has been published in The American Journal of Family Therapy and presented at national conferences. Dr. Volini is also the author of a study guide and narrator of an audio review disc set that prepares professionals in marriage and family therapy to pass the national licensing exam. Dr. Volini regularly facilitates intensive two-day trainings for the national licensing exam both locally and nationally as well as trainings geared toward clinical supervisors of student and pre-licensed MFTs to refine approaches to fostering a subjective theory of change and effectively preparing graduates to pass the national exam. Clinically, Dr. Volini has developed and directed a trauma-focused adolescent day treatment program, served as an outpatient therapist at a community mental health clinic, a school-based therapist, and an in-home family therapist. Currently, Dr. Volini practices through the Lorenz Clinic of Family Psychology (Victoria, MN), a Family Psychology Training Clinic where he sees individuals, couples, and families.
