A literature review revealed few papers discussing the process of teaching family therapy. Described are some alternative teaching methods for a beginning level course.

Course evaluations improved and students were encouraged about applying specific theories to practice. Innovative teaching provides protection against instructor burnout. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
