About this title

Synopsis

How to use families as a resource in child therapy. Therapists now acknowledge that "it takes a family to heal a child." But many still ask: How do we involve families in treatment? Which family dynamics are associated with childhood disorders? How can we mobilize families' emotional and relational resources? Paying special attention to competency-based theories and interventions, the contributors to this book use case studies to answer these questions and teach therapists how to draw on the inherent strengths of children and families.
