Description: This unique book presents actual case transcripts based on 12 different theories of family therapy. Each author describes his or her theoretical orientation and then presents transcripts, interspersed with commentary on how the model of therapy is expressed in the sessions. This blend of theory and practice is ideal for students who understand basic principles of family therapy, yet need an illustration of how to put these concepts into practice.

No other text includes the gamut of family therapy models, with specific transcripts of why, when, how, and what therapists say to their clients.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
