Clinical Handbook of Couple Therapy - 3rd edition
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Excellent quality, extremely well-written and does a great job of covering the "territory" of couple therapy. Material is up to date with the latest from Gottman, narrative therapy and emotionally focused therapy as well as 12 chapters devoted to special populations and problems. I found it to be an informative, interesting and enjoyable read. Would recommend it without reservation.

This is a collection of chapters written about couple and marital therapy. The chapters are authored by recognized experts in the different therapies, and contain theoretical background, techniques, and case examples. It provides a general overview of the therapies, without going in great detail about any of them.

For the practicing clinician, this is an invaluable work outlining the prevalent theoretical frameworks in couples therapy. It is interesting and readable, not the dry academic tome the previous reviewer claims it to be. And it actually includes narrative therapy and emotionally focused therapy! two cutting-edge modalities that give us hope the field is finally coming out of the Dark Ages when cognitive-behavioural therapy was the best we had to offer. (No wonder couple therapy has had such poor results!) It does a good job of discussing the basics of the most difficult work a therapist can do, covering many issues couples might have to deal with (see the table of contents). I would wish for more discussion on especially difficult issues such as working with secrets, blended families, high-conflict couples, immigrant/refugee issues, or the impact of trauma generally. Next edition, maybe.
