Abstract:
"Theory and Practice of Couples and Family Counseling is intended for undergraduate and graduate students interested in the fields of couples and family counseling. While this book is designed especially for counselors, those in training as well as those currently practicing as Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), this book will also accommodate students and practitioners in family studies, human services, marriage and family therapy, nursing, pastoral counseling, psychiatry, psychology, and social work. My overall goal in writing this book is to survey the major theories and practices of contemporary relational counseling as well as support the development of personal, professional, and ethical couples and family practice. Most importantly, the book provides a model for a successful integration of multiple points of view"-- Provided by publisher.
