Inhaltsangabe

Pathways to Change presents a highly pragmatic and innovative Solution-Oriented Brief Family Therapy approach for challenging adolescent cases. Therapy is collaborative and capitalizes on the strengths and resources of family members, the adolescent's peers, and involved helping professionals from larger systmes to rapidly resolve the client's presenting problems. Selekman's Solution-Oriented Brief Family Therapy model goes beyond other brief therapy approaches in that it integrates progressive therapeutic ideas from Steve deShazer, Michael White, Tom Andersen, and the Galveston group. The book also discusses therapeutic improvisation and the use of humor in brief therapy. Packed with case examples and interview transcripts, the book offers many practical "how-to" features. Finally Selekman presents a blueprint for conducting his Solution-Oriented Parenting Group as an alternative to regular family therapy or when therapists are unable to engage the adolescents in treatment. This book will be invaluable to mental health and addiction professionals working with adolescents and their families.
