Hope-Focused Marriage Counseling: A Guide to Brief Therapy Review
Source: Product DescriptionEverett L. Worthington, Jr. offers a comprehensive manual for assisting couples over common rough spots and through serious problems in a manner that is compassionate, effective and brief. His hope-focused (rather than problem-focused) approach enables couples to see that change is possible and gives them a new outlook on the future. Combining this with a brief approach that addresses the realities of managed care and tight budgets, Worthington shows how to be strategic in each counseling situation by including teaching, training, exercises, forgiveness, modeling and motivation. At the heart of the book are dozens of interventions and exercises, including
- drawing on central values
- promoting confession and forgiveness
- strengthening communication
- aiding conflict resolution
- changing patterns of thinking
- developing intimacy
- cementing commitment
