Resumen del Editor

In 10 Principles for Doing Effective Couples Therapy, two of the world's leading couple researchers and therapists give listeners an inside tour of what goes on inside the consulting rooms of their practice. They have been doing couples work for decades and still find it challenging and full of learning experiences. This book distills the knowledge they've gained over their years of practice into 10 principles at the core of good couples work. Each principle is illustrated with a clinically compiled case plus personal side-notes and storytelling.

Topics addressed include:

• You know that you need to "treat the relationship," but how are you supposed to get at something as elusive as "a relationship"?
• How do you empathize with both clients if they have opposite points of view? Later on, if they end up separating does that mean you've failed? Are you only successful if you keep couples together?
• Compared to an individual client, a relationship is an entirely different animal. What should you do first? What should you look for? What questions should you ask? If clients give different answers, who should you believe?

Contains mature themes.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I love the Gottmans!

I love this book and the Gottman approach. Good read and information that. was shared.

Refreshing

This book is a refreshing change for therapy for couples. I really enjoyed the new approaches that it brought. I plan to use that in my practice.

Excellent

Easy listen. Not too clinical. Humble and helpful to better understand Gottman integration into couples work.

Profoundly accessible and immediately relevant for practice

This book provides theory, case studies and practical interventions. It’s a great addition to any therapist’s library, while also being accessible enough to offer clients as general psycho education.

Must Read for Therapists

Amazing, easy to digest techniques. The case studies helped to bring it all alive. Highly recommend!

Detailed examples of their counceling concepts.

Great book now I need to buy the printed version. it was very informative and filled with practical examples of how to conduct the counseling work.

Excellent book!

I truly enjoyed this book. Having spent about two years working on my own theraputic journey and having tried to seek couples therapy with an ex, I truly appreciate just about everything I heard in this book. I found it to be easy to listen to (despite some emotionally challenging content) because the author seems very genuine, honest, down to earth, humble and has a pleasant sense of humor. I found much of this book and the autgors presence to be relatable. The Gottman's approach seems very respecful. I can't help but wonder what my couples therapy experience would have been like with them and if it would have changed things or the outcome with my ex.

Well narrated

It's a good book on couples counselling.
Informative. It is simple and well narrated. At times the approaches lack the depth and can potentially create a traumatising situation for the abused partner. It doesn't touch on essential topics of power balance and control. Or what is the abusive relationship, and how important is it to acknowledge and support the victims instead of mediating the reconnection first.

Very good

A great starter to the layout of couples therapy with real examples and pdf tools!

Robotic

The book is pretty good overall but the reader seemed so painfully robotic to me it was hard to get through.
