This volume features case presentations by many practitioners of couple and family therapy, bringing to life the full spectrum of contemporary approaches in the field. Selected to illuminate the process and goals of each approach and to allow readers to listen in on highly skilled therapists at work, these cases serve together as a clinical resource for therapists and students. Exploring the role that cognitive-behavioral strategies may play within contemporary systems approaches, editor Frank M. Dattilio annotates the cases throughout with recommendations on how cognitive principles might usefully be called upon at specific points. Responses from contributors consider the benefits of Dattilio's suggestions and further elucidate each practitioner's own decision-making process.
