Inhaltsangabe

This book offers both theoretical rationale and practical applications for

mental health professionals who seek to implement systemic therapy in correctional

contexts.

Delving into the intricacies of systemic therapy and its transformative

power in the lives of those affected by the criminal justice system, this book

explores how family systems theory and systemic treatment can be utilized

with incarcerated individuals and their families. Eman Tadros and expert

contributing authors examine the pervasive structural inequalities within

correctional settings and offer clinical guidance for working with a range

of individuals and unique relationship dynamics, all while considering how

to minimize disruption to the individual and their family during the transition

from imprisonment to post-release. Chapters explore various treatment

modalities within correctional settings including different dimensions

of couple and family therapy such as parent-child relationships, reunification,

ethics, intimacy, and more. Special considerations are given to working

with LGBTQ+ incarcerated individuals and families as well as those from

racially and ethnically diverse backgrounds. This book concludes with a call

to action and outlines future research directions, encouraging training for

therapists and support for justice-impacted families.

This is an essential resource for those who work with incarcerated individuals

and their families, such as marriage and family therapists, psychologists,

counselors, and clinical social workers, as well as students and researchers interested

in family theory and the criminal justice system’s impacts on wellbeing.
