About the Book

ng Couple Therapy, Second Edition is a comprehensive guide to contextual couple therapy (CCT),an evidence-based approach to helping couples improve their relationships. Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides clinicians with the skills and knowledge they need to effectively implement CCT with their clients.

CCT is a strengths-based approach that focuses on helping couples identify and build on their strengths. It is also a solution-focused approach that helps couples develop strategies for resolving their problems. The emphasis of the book is on the fostering of change and growth within couples through the development of new relational patterns that support connection, intimacy, and well-being.

The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of CCT, including its theoretical foundations and clinical applications. The second part provides step-by-step instructions for implementing CCT with couples. The third part discusses special topics in couple therapy, such as working with couples in crisis, couples with children, and couples with trauma. With a strong focus on experiential learning, the book includes video demonstrations of therapists conducting couples therapy and a host of helpful exercises and resources for clinicians.
