More Description
For courses in Practice with Children and Families or Direct or Clinical Social Work Practice.
This new text presents a wealth of ideas and methods for using collaborative, strengths-based practice by social workers or family therapists. It looks at the conditions, factors, and practices that most often lead to success in therapeutic outcomes and translates them into common-sense practical methods.
Through in-depth discussion, client examples, clinical vignettes, and exercises the author shows practitioners how to create a respectful attitude by becoming: culturally sensitive; collaborative; client informed; competency based; and change oriented. It is based on decades of research that have been demonstrated to be influential in therapeutic outcomes.
