A pragmatic, clinical approach focuses on the essential knowledge needed for the successful practice of family therapy The Essentials of Family Therapy examines the full scope of family therapy - its rich history, classic schools, and latest developments - with an increased emphasis on practical issues. With its focus on contemporary clinical practice, illustrative case studies, and extremely practical presentation, The Essentials of Family Therapy helps readers gain a thorough understanding of why a therapy technique is successful and how they can apply it in their own practice.
