Advances and Techniques in Restoration Therapy - Tapa blanda

"Is there another book that is so inspiring, practical, humane, and creative, all at the same time? Systemic therapy has been begging for a model that uncovers love, safety, and the virtuous truth within every person! Hargrave and colleagues have surprises on every page. Interventions for children, Asian-Americans, and those with personality disorders illustrate the versatility of restoration therapy. These thoughtful questions and transcripts demonstrate how mindfulness cycles liberate our families from pain and conflict."

―Suzanne Midori Hanna, PhD, LMFT, senior scholar at the Hiebert Institute, instructor at Capella University and Touro University Worldwide, and author of The Practice of Family Therapy: Key Elements Across Models, 5th Edition

"This excellent new edition uses facts from neuroscience to explain how humans process and then relive their individual pain cycle. From there, the book provides therapists with a guide to helping clients move into the peace cycle, using diagrams, cases and dialogue to learn and perfect their skill. Beginners and seasoned therapists that desire a model that resonates with family therapy will find the book easy to follow and the work rewarding to practice."

―Linda Metcalf, PhD, LMFT, LPC, director of graduate counseling programs at Texas Wesleyan University

"If you are not yet familiar with the new kid on the block, restoration therapy, you are in for a treat. Hargrave and colleagues have created a contemporary model based on the wisdom of attachment theory and contextual therapy. This sequel goes deeper into the theory with the bonus of practical interventions to move a client to truth and healing. I highly recommend this work to enhance your inner work as well as that of your clients."
