In 10 Principles for Doing Effective Couples Therapy, two of the world's leading couple researchers and therapists give listeners an inside tour of what goes on inside the consulting rooms of their practice. They have been doing couples work for decades and still find it challenging and full of learning experiences. This book distills the knowledge they've gained over their years of practice into ten principles at the core of good couples work. Each principle is illustrated with a clinically compiled case plus personal side-notes and storytelling. Topics addressed include:
โ You know that you need to "treat the relationship," but how are you supposed to get at something as elusive as "a relationship"?
โ How do you empathize with both clients if they have opposite points of view? Later on, if they end up separating does that mean youโve failed? Are you only successful if you keep couples together?
โ Compared to an individual client, a relationship is an entirely different animal. What should you do first? What should you look for? What questions should you ask? If clients give different answers, who should you believe?
Contains mature themes.
