Part I gives an overview of contextual therapy, including case conceptualization, assessment, intervention, and supervision. Part II provides specific recommendations for incorporating contextual therapy in diverse and multidisciplinary settings. Case studies illustrate how concepts such as justice, loyalty, and balanced giving and receiving influence families' adjustment to chronic illnesses and mental health disorders. Accounting for the trend toward increased collaboration between providers in traditional mental health and medical settings, this book will empower clinicians to expand their current range of assessment methods, intervention techniques, and supervision experiences New & Used

What Reviewers Are Saying
"All you need is love. But the prime insight of contextual therapy is that that love is shaped by your sense of justice and fairness in your most important relationships. In this clear, concrete and yet impassioned book by family therapists Schmidt and Sibley, psychotherapists are given the means to enhance fairness among caregiving family members to foster greater harmony, cohesion and healing"
