About the book

"This second edition of the standard therapeutic manual for emotionally focused couple and family therapy represents a substantial revision and expansion of the enormously influential first edition. Sue Johnson brings up to date the EFT clinical road map that she provided in the highly regarded 1996 edition, incorporating the latest clinical research results, new case studies, a discussion of the growth of couple therapy as a field, and coverage of such new topics as EFT and post-traumatic stress disorder, EFT and forgiveness and reconciliation, and EFT and feminism. The new edition also includes greatly expanded coverage on adult attachment and its relevance to the couple and family therapist, and a section on culture and cultural competence for the EFT therapist." "One of the best documented, most substantive, and well-researched approaches to couple therapy, EFT offers a broad, profound, and clinically relevant relational theory. Suitable for use by graduate students and practicing mental health professionals alike, The Practice of Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy offers therapists a coherent set of interventions and a road map to the process of change in couple therapy."--Jacket.
