What Happens in Couple Therapy
A Casebook on Effective Practice
About This Book
Bringing contemporary couple therapy to life, this casebook candidly illustrates the "whats, " "whys, " and "how-tos" of leading clinical approaches. Well-known contributors provide a window into their work with couples seeking help for a variety of relationship challenges. Cases depict the moment-by-moment process of therapy, from the initial assessment and case formulation through the beginning, intermediate, and concluding phases. Themes addressed include working across cultural divides; helping couples living with psychological or medical disorders; and treating interfaith couples, military couples, and same-sex and queer couples. Enhancing the book's utility for course use, the expert editors concisely introduce each case and describe how the approach fits into the broader field. See also Lebow and Snyder's Clinical Handbook of Couple Therapy, Sixth Edition, which provides an authoritative overview of theory and practice.
