The goal of this chapter is to map the developmental trajectory of family therapy in family psychology intervention science (FT-FPIS) from its early roots to its current status. The authors also hope to provide a perspective on its developmental process with an eye toward future challenges. Four key elements in the developmental evolution of FT-FPIS are discussed: science, the theory and techniques of family therapy, core principles in basic psychology, and the broader cultural and sociopolitical contexts in which FT-FPIS has evolved. In addition, the emergence of family-based empirically supported treatments and family-based empirically supported treatment as an intervention science are discussed.
