Clear, practical, and realistic direction from a distinguished therapist - a portable supervisor in a book.

Wachtel is known for her strengths-focused approach.

She weaves together systemic, cognitive-behavioral, experiential, and psychodynamic principles, focusing on what works rather than theoretical purity, which sets it apart from other books.

It addresses the unique challenges therapists face with couples in distress as well as the specific skills they need to develop.

Significant highlights include an epilogue by award-winning therapist Paul Wachtel, who places this work's flexible approach within the modern scientific discussion of effective therapy.
