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 ten 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: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - You know that you need to \"treat the relationship,\" but how are you supposed to get at something as elusive as \"a relationship\"?\u003cbr\u003e - 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?\u003cbr\u003e - 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?\u003cbr\u003e - What are you supposed to do with all the emotional and personal history that your clients stir up in you?\u003cbr\u003e - How can you make your work research-based?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e No one who works with couples will want to be without the insight, guidance, and strategies offered in this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGottman, Julie Schwartz:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eJulie Schwartz Gottman, Ph.D\u003c\/strong\u003e., is the Co-Founder and President of The Gottman Institute.
