Title: Reaching out in family therapy
Description: "This volume presents a valuable framework for conducting family therapy sessions in the home, school, and community. Drawing upon years of frontline work in family therapy practice, training, and supervision, Nancy Boyd-Franklin and Brenna Hafer Bry illuminate vital concepts and skills for helping families deal effectively with a variety of life challenges, including the effects of racism and other societal stressors. Illustrated with extensive clinical case material, the volume promotes a strengths perspective that is attuned to the complex realities of family life today. Practitioners and students in a range of settings will find it a sensitive and informative guide." "This comprehensive guide will be of great value to family therapists and counselors already doing home-based work, as well as those who would like to incorporate it into their practice. It will also enhance the work of psychologists; social workers and child welfare workers; visiting nurses; and students in a range of mental health fields. It may serve as a text for courses in family therapy; clinical and school psychology; social work; school, family, and community counseling; and family and community psychiatry."--Jacket.
