Bringing contemporary couple therapy to life, this casebook candidly illustrates the “whats,” “whys,” and “how-tos” of leading clinical approaches. Well-known contributors provide a window into their work with couples seeking help for a variety of relationship challenges. Cases depict the moment-by-moment process of therapy, from the initial assessment and case formulation through the beginning, intermediate, and concluding phases. Themes addressed include working across cultural divides; helping couples living with psychological or medical disorders; and treating interfaith couples, military couples, and same-sex and queer couples. Enhancing the books utility for course use, the expert editors concisely introduce each case and describe how the approach fits into the broader field.
