Foundations for Couples' Therapy

Research for the Real World

  • 2 Want to read

As a quality resource that examines the psychological, neurobiological, cultural, and spiritual considerations that undergird optimal couple care, Foundations for Couples’ Therapy teaches readers to conduct sensitive and comprehensive therapy with a diverse range of couples. Experts from social work, clinical psychotherapy, neuroscience, social psychology, and health respond to one of seven central case examples to help readers understand the dynamics within each partner, as well as within the couple as a system and within a broader cultural context. Presented within a Problem-Based Learning approach (PBL), these cases ground the text in clinical reality. Contributors cover critical and emerging topics like cybersex, emotional well-being, forgiveness, military couples, developmental trauma, and more, making it a must-have for practitioners as well as graduate students.

Excerpts

Just as illness and disease are influenced by multiple levels of organisation from the societal to the molecular, I propose that couples’ therapists need to draw on a body of scientifically informed knowledge that transcends a simple toolkit of standard interventions or one tightly held theory. In a review of the biopsychosocial model, Borrell-Carrio, Suchman, and Epstein (2004) suggest that the model has helped expand the clinical gaze of health practitioners, thereby expanding understanding of patients’ subjective experience. In similar vein, my hope is that this book will assist us all, the people to whom our distressed couples turn for help, to listen and intervene effectively with greater breadth and depth of understanding and knowledge.
