      Multisystemic Therapy for Child Abuse and Neglect (MST-CAN) is an Evidenced-Based program that has been specifically designed to support change within vulnerable families who have come to the attention of child protection services. MST-CAN is a home-based intervention that is delivered at times that are convenient to the family. It is an intensive program, typically 3-4 sessions per week over a period of 6 - 9 months. All members of the family are involved in the treatment. Common treatment strategies include safety planning, Cognitive Behavioral Therapies for managing anger and addressing the impact of trauma, Reinforcement-Based Therapy for adult substance misuse, family therapy focused on communication and problem solving. As an MST-CAN Family Therapist I work therapeutically with families from a strengths based perspective utilising a trauma informed approach.
