Rezensionen

"The 2nd edition of the Murphy and Hecker book is excellently written with illustrative case vignettes and is even more comprehensive than the original version. The additional chapters about HIPPA and HITECH, home-based therapy, and professional private practice issues make the book a must for all C/MFT training programs and private practitioners."-Volker Thomas, PhD, LMFT, professor of couple and family therapy, University of Iowa (retired)

"Ethics and Professional Issues in Couple and Family Therapy is full of preventive care and interventions for the couple and family therapists in clinical practice. The distinguished editors and contributors provide pages of practical suggestions and recommendations to

maintain best practices. The authors took great care to untangle complex ethical, legal, and technical issues, which makes the book an easy, but informative read for experienced clinicians and CFT students. The culturally diverse case examples illustrate how therapists can avoid common pitfalls inherent in clinical practice and the importance of self-care. This book should be a required reading for students in CFT programs!"-Stephanie Brooks, PhD, LCSW, LMFT, chair, Couple and Family Therapy Department; associate dean, Graduate Health Professions, Drexel University

"This is an indispensable resource on ethical issues in the practice of couple and family therapy. The second edition includes a comprehensive review of new HIPPA and HITECH regulations, and the latest AAMFT code of ethics. Clear and concrete examples are used to drive home major points. I highly recommend this book to any couple and family therapy student, instructor, or licensed provider."-Andrea K. Wittenborn, PhD, graduate director, associate professor, Human Development and Family Studies, Michigan State University
