Family Therapy cover

Family therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques provides a concise and jargon-free guide to family therapy. Through a range of case examples, the authors describe how family therapists begin and progress their therapy. Each section of the book is constructed to lead both beginning and experienced clinicians into the acquisition of new skills.

This new edition covers:

  • The use of formulation and hypotheses in family therapy practice
  • How relational patterns function and how to change negative ones
  • Initial skills and principles to help families change their patterns
  • Advanced family therapy interviewing
  • Evidence-based models of family therapy
  • Contemporary issues in family therapy practice

Family Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques is an invaluable resource for psychotherapists and counsellors in training and in practice. As well as appealing to established family therapists, this new edition should also find an audience with other mental health professionals working with families and interested in learning more about family therapy techniques.

‘Mark Rivett and Eddy Street have provided a coherent and organized way of summarizing all of the key aspects of family therapy in one concise easy to read volume. Not only do they highlight all the key theories, interventions, and skills involved, but they also find ways to engage the reader in major controversies in the field. The book should be part of any core curriculum in family therapy and a part of every family therapist’s library.’

Jay Lebow, Ph.D., Senior Scholar and Clinical Professor, The Family Institute of Northwestern

‘Family Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques is an exceptional, clear and comprehensive contribution to the systemic field. This book is at once engaging, practical, and accessible. Rich with case material, grounded in practice-based evidence, and written with generosity, this text offers both a map and an invitation: a way of seeing, thinking, and practising that supports therapists to work relationally, ethically, and with cultural sensitivity.’

Professor Hannah Sherbersky,Systemic Psychotherapist, CEDAR University of Exeter UK; TV therapist, BBC 3 ‘Anxiety and me’
