Couples Therapy

Rating:
Summary: Comprehensive and very interesting book!
Review: I can really recommend this book! Being a psychologist myself, I have always been on the alert for integrative approaches to couples therapy. This book is one of them! The author skillfully blends psychological theories and studies with her daily experience as a therapist. Especially interesting are the following features:
- A solid foundation in research findings
- Case studies with illuminating therapist interventions
- Self explorations
- Sample Workshop charts (if you decide to teach parts of the book in a workshop)
- A comprehensive bibliography both for couples and therapists
- An eclectic approach, integrating cognitive-behavior, sociocognitive, psychodynamic and humanistic therapy approaches

If you need suggestions for working with couples, I am sure you will find some of then in this book. Taking everything together, Linda Berg-Cross truly succeeded in writing a comprehensive book about couples therapy!
