Couples Therapy: The Self In The Relationship( Series - Psychotherapy )

Using vivid case studies and vignettes of clinical practice, Crawley and Grant provide a comprehensive overview of couples therapy within a psychodynamic and systemic framework. Arguing that successful work with couples requires an understanding of, and a capacity to engage with, both the individual partners and the dynamics of their relationship, the authors show how theoretical understanding of the phenomenon of the couple relationship plays out in the practical issues that confront the counselor or therapist working with couples.
