Description

Introduces the clinical knowledge needed for the practice of couple and family therapy. There is a strong emphasis on the use of self in the therapeutic relationship. In preparation for Clinical Studies B, there is a small group program of simulated practice using supervised role-play and video analysis. Practice skills are developed for interviewing couples and families, and attention is paid to competencies in beginning, middle and ending stages of therapy. Both Clinical Studies A and Clinical Studies B use the theory and practice of the Milan framework of therapy as the main reference point, and other theory is drawn in as it relates to specific clinical situations.
