Mastering Family Therapy by Salvador Minuchin
A rare behind-the-scenes look at the legendary Sal Minuchin's work as a practitioner and teacher of family therapy. In part one, Minuchin offers his views on what makes a good family therapist and discusses how therapists must use their own personal experiences to bring about change in troubled families. In part two, nine of Minuchin's supervisees each present a detailed case study along with Minuchin's ongoing commentary-and demonstrate how Minuchin's supervision enhanced their self-understanding and their therapeutic practice.
