Incorporating the innovative therapeutic principles and practices described in that work, this new volume focuses on the reflecting team approach to family therapy, offering in-depth guidelines for applying this unique approach in a variety of clinical contextsfrom outpatient clinics to managed-care organizations and hospit al and school settings.
