Couple Therapy

The Basics

Beschreibung

Couple Therapy: The Basics provides a comprehensive introduction to couple therapy. Taking both a general overview and a psychoanalytic focus, it addresses the basic questions that both couples and those interested in becoming couple therapists can expect to ask.

Using jargon-light language, this book summarises the range of approaches available to those seeking couple therapy - from behavioural to psychoanalytic. It covers topics such as: what defines a couple, challenges for couple therapists, and outcomes for couple therapy. While introducing the subject to many readers, it also aims to further interest in and understanding of couple therapy, explaining its differences from other therapies. A glossary of key terms is included, as well as appendices with links to research and associated organisations.

This book is essential for early career therapists, as well as those undertaking or are interested in couple therapy.
