Handbook of Clinical Issues in Couple Therapy cover

Now updated in its second edition, Handbook of Clinical Issues in Couple Therapy provides a comprehensive overview of emerging issues that impact couple therapy. Unlike other guides that concentrate more on theoretical approaches, this invaluable resource contains the latest research and perspectives that every clinician needs when dealing with the challenging issues often found in practice. Carefully referenced, it explores a range of issues that include intimate partner violence, posttraumatic stress disorder and its effect on couple relationships, divorce therapy, remarriage and cohabitation issues, cultural issues, and couple therapist training. This insightful edited volume is suitable for a wide spectrum of readers, including couple and family therapists, counselors, psychologists, social workers, pastoral counselors, educators, and graduate students.

“This book is a leap forward for the study and practice of couple therapy. The authors bring breadth, depth, and penetrating insight to a wide range of important clinical issues. Well done!” - Fred P. Piercy, PhD, Associate Dean and Professor of Family Therapy, Virginia Tech, USA

“The Handbook of Clinical Issues in Couple Therapy (second edition) makes an exceptional contribution to couple therapy literature. This book focuses on issues that impact couples and their treatment. Information is presented in a way that a therapist can immediately use in their work with clients. This is exactly the kind of book needed in our field to bring together research and scholarship with everyday issues and couples treatment.” - Dr. Toni Schindler Zimmerman, Professor and Director of the Marriage and Family Therapy Program, Colorado State University, Colorado, USA
