Systems Theories for Psychotherapists explores three key theories
that underpin many of the models of psychotherapy: general systems
theory, natural systems theory, and language systems theory. The
book presents the aesthetics (how to see and understand what is
happening) and the pragmatics (what to do in the therapy room)
behind each theory. It also explores how therapists can
successfully conceptualize the problems that clients bring to
therapy, offering a range of contemporary examples to show how each
theory can be applied to practice. Starting with an introduction to
systems theories, the book then delves into cybernetics,
interactional systems, natural systems, constructivist theory, and
social construction theory. Each chapter uses a distinctive case
example to help clinicians to better understand and apply the
theories to their own therapeutic setting. Woven throughout the
book are three helpful learning tools: "Applying Your Knowledge,"
"Key Figure," and "Questions for Reflection," providing the reader
with the opportunity to critically engage with each concept,
consider how their own world view and preconceptions can inform
their work with clients, and challenging them to apply prominent
systems theories to their own practice. Systems Theories for
Psychotherapists is a clear and valuable text for undergraduate and
graduate students in mental health programs, including counseling,
marriage and family therapy, social work and clinical psychology,
as well as for all practicing clinicians.
