Keywords

Abstract

The adventure-based counseling (ABC) approach integrates counseling and experiential education in an outdoor environment and the Multiple Family Therapy Group (MFTG) treats multiple families concurrently. This article presents the history, theoretical basis, benefits, and challenges for each of these approaches. A proposed model integrates both approaches for an innovative, multi-month intervention for MFTGs. Additionally, the article presents treatment implications along with benefits, challenges, ethical considerations, and modifications for use with individual families. © 2010, SAGE Publications.
