Insight into the current issues impacting couple therapy
The Handbook of Clinical Issues in Couple Therapy is a comprehensive overview of emerging issues that impact couple therapy, all in a single volume. While other guides concentrate more on the approaches themselves, this invaluable source provides the latest research and perspectives every clinician needs when dealing with challenging issues often found in practice. Practitioners get a clear view of the aspects of problems they must consider to be most effective when providing therapy to couples.
This carefully referenced book is divided into five important areas. The Handbook of Clinical Issues in Couple Therapy discusses in detail several of the most crucial aspects of each major issue. Biological and physiological issues include mental illness, addictions, and sex therapy. Traumatic issues deals with the difficult aspects of domestic violence and infidelity. Relationship issues reviews divorce therapy and remarriage. Sociological issues include the cultural, spiritual, and feminist aspects of therapy. The book also includes a helpful review on the training of couple therapists.
