ISBN: 0876307195 ISBN-13: 9780876307199 Publisher: Routledge OUR PRICE: $54.10 Product Type: Paperback Published: August 1993 Annotation: Family Therapy conveys why, when and how family therapy should be used as opposed to focusing on the techniques-with-theories-attached of other books in the same genre. This book provides an easy to understand, basic approach that eschews the latest treatment trends and buzzwords in family therapy to focus on a new way of thinking about using family relationhips in treating behavioral disorders. Throughout, Dr. Griffin stresses the importance of learning to view and treat the family as a whole, often requiring a difficult conceptual shift in one's view of aberrant behavior. Readers will be rewarded with a rudimentary understanding of family therapy that will serve them well regardless of which family therapy models they later use in practice. |
