Satir Family Therapy in Action - Paperback

by Maria Gomori (Author)

Since Maria Gomori first met and studied with Virginia Satir in 1968, she has worked tirelessly around the world to fulfill Satir's dream of changing the world "one family at a time." In Satir Family Therapy in Action, Maria presents five varied and impactful cases from a family therapy teaching project conducted in China in 2011 and 2012. Testament to the universality of underlying issues in cultures across the globe, the sessions will be inspirational both to parents and families and to practitioners and students. They are masterclasses in the art of family therapy, demonstrating Maria's firm belief that change in families is always possible. Satir Family Therapy in Action also contains two personal essays, one on the life and pioneering work of Virginia Satir, another on Maria's own involvement in the development of Satir's work in North America, Asia, and around the world.
