- Book Synopsis
- This book demonstrates how integrative clinical practices provide a flexible, systematic, and responsive approach to working with couples and families with complex challenges. Couples and families experience stressors of all kinds, such as infertility, blending families, infidelity, military trauma, incarceration, and sexual abuse. Complicating these already-difficult issues may be added social scrutiny due to racism, undocumented immigration, or LGBTQ status. Likewise, new technologies such as social media and data tracking, while having many positive uses, can also intensify problematic patterns. Couples and families entering treatment need a tailored clinical approach, which integrative therapies offer. Contributors to this edited book summarize current scientific knowledge about the complex clinical problems that bring couples and families to treatment, and discuss integrative couple and family therapy models. Eleven detailed case conceptualizations illustrate how practitioners and therapists use integrative models to provide care for couples and families. This roadmap of integrative treatments is for trainees as well as currently practicing psychologists, social workers, counselors, and marriage and family therapists.
