Couple and Family Therapy presents the major theories of couple and family therapy using a case-based approach. It helps you understand how to apply theory to counseling practice. Each chapter begins with a distinct, realistic client case. As theoretical elements are introduced, you're shown how the theoretical constructs are applied to each case. Both foundational theories and current approaches are presented in a common structure.

In the 1st Edition, each chapter presents evidence-based research of the theory. It then evaluates the theory's application with clients of diverse backgrounds. The case-based presentation gives you effective, concrete examples and analyzes how theory is applied, preparing you for your own professional practice.
