Description
Family Therapy Concepts, Process and Practice by Alan Carr is a comprehensive textbook that presents a unique, integrative approach to the theory and practice of family therapy. This third edition builds upon previous editions, incorporating recent advances in family therapy practice and reviews of latest research. The book addresses various aspects of family therapy, including family behaviour patterns, family belief systems, narratives, and broader contextual factors in problem formation and resolution. It provides a framework for applying the model to address issues such as childhood problems, marital distress, anxiety, and depression. Student-friendly features include chapter plans, summaries of key points, glossaries of new terms, case studies, and further reading suggestions throughout the book.
