Title: Latino families in therapy
First published: 1998
Description: Presenting an accessible and original framework for thinking about multiculturalism in therapy, this comprehensive volume provides valuable insights and strategies for therapists working with Latino families. Readers gain awareness of specific clinical issues, family dynamics, and sociopolitical realities that are frequently shared by Latino clients, while at the same time learning to avoid stereotypical assessments that rob families of their individual histories and choices.

Filled with evocative case illustrations and clinical pointers, the book represents an important contribution to culturally sensitive psychotherapy practice. A practical and illuminating resource for family therapists and other clinicians working with a culturally diverse clientele, this book also serves as a text in clinical courses in family therapy, psychotherapy, social work, and counseling.
