Contemporary Family Therapy (CFT)

Contemporary Family Therapy is an international, peer-reviewed academic journal devoted to advancing knowledge about family therapy, systemic intervention, and applied research on individual, couple, and family well-being. Established in 1986, the journal provides a trusted platform for empirical research, theoretical developments, clinical innovations, and translational studies that enhance understanding of systemic therapeutic processes, outcomes, and service delivery. It emphasizes the integration of research and practice in diverse family systems, addressing how therapeutic models work across different cultural and social contexts, and assessing the effectiveness of treatment approaches. The journal publishes original research addressing process research, program evaluation, service delivery examinations, policy matters, and clinical practice issues in systemic and family therapy settings. It welcomes contributions from scholars, clinicians, and practitioner-researchers across disciplines including psychology, social work, counseling, behavioral health science, and public policy. Because the field of family therapy intersects with human development and relational systems, Contemporary Family Therapy serves as a hub for multidisciplinary insights that inform both academic scholarship and frontline clinical practice. The hybrid publication model allows authors the option of traditional access or open access via article processing charges.
