We live in a complex world with abundant reciprocal relationships. Most of us interact daily with our partners, children, colleagues and neighbours, as well as with numerous people who provide the services for living life. All of these interactions have an impact on us and we have an impact on them. When they support a positive view of ourselves, we feel at peace; when they do not, we feel anxious. "Concise Guide to Marital and Family Therapy" presents both the theoretical and practical cornerstones of relationship therapy that help therapists move a family or couple toward healing. This guide focuses on therapy with families and couples - the field of marital and family therapy (MFT). This therapeutic approach is about changing relationships through changing the interactions among people who make up the family or marital unit.
