The first couples therapy text which allows real comparisons among different
approaches due to a standard structure across chapters involving an analysis
of a single case. The book demonstrates a rich variety of interventions
available for treating relationship problems. Treatment approaches are
divided into psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral and integrative therapies.
For students or professional counsellors and therapists who want to improve their practice with couples, and practitioners at all levels will find this book clinically enlightening. "This volume will help us take several large steps forward in the field's evolving quest to enhance therapeutic effectiveness not only through the expansion of therapeutic methods, but through the expansion of therapist's minds."
