Title: Models of family therapy
First published: 1999
Description: Models of Family Therapy provides an overview of established family therapy models such as structural, behavioral, psychoeducational, experiential therapy, and others. To facilitate learning how the dimensions of each model "fit" with other models, this book enhances comparability by using the same general outline in all chapters. In these outlines, the critical components of each model are broken down into a few core assumptions, terms, techniques, and methods.

These critical components are summarized consistent with their description in the original publications. This book can also be useful as a primary text or supplement in a marriage and family therapy course because of the style of presentation. In addition, graduate students and professionals can benefit from this guidebook in order to prepare for any state or national examination on marriage and family therapy.
