Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples

A must read for Marriage Therapists. A great book for understanding the dyad dynamics. Valuable material for any practitioner who works with couples who need direction.

As a couples therapist, I am always interested in expanding my knowledge and skills as a clinician. This book has proven to be an excellent resource for me. Greenberg and Johnson have written a book that is both theoretically interesting and a useful guide for practice. Their emphasis is on helping couples learn how to acknowledge and communicate their emotions to each other, and they offer a very comprehensible outline of the steps involved in working with emotions in couples therapy. This book also has excellent clinical examples which show how these ideas look in practice. Highly recommended!
