Integrative Problem-centered Therapy: A Synthesis Of Biological, Individual, And Family Therapy

Part of a growing trend toward bridging the gap between rival schools of therapy, this book goes beyond other works to envision a mental health professional who, like a family doctor, can serve as a resource for an entire family either individually or together throughout their lives.

In this innovative book, William M. Pinsof provides a comprehensive framework for the responsible, cost-effective, and creative conduct of psychotherapy in the face of these challenges, Integrative Problem-Centered Therapy lays out a clear structure for combining the major theories and techniques from family therapy, individual therapy, and biological psychiatry. This structure rests on systems theory and attempts to build on the healthy resources within individuals and families, giving guidelines for what to do when and with whom.
