Paradigms of Clinical Social Work (Paperback)

Designed to mirror how social work theory and practice is taught, Paradigms of Clinical Social Work: Emphasis on Diversity presents new therapeutic models through an imaginary family, "the Shores," experiencing problems with mental illness, child abuse, unemployment and marital dysfunction. The case of this family is used to demonstrate essential treatment techniques and concepts, exploring a number of therapeutic approaches ranging from the classic to the cutting-edge. One of the major additions to this volume is its focus on diversity in social work practice. For part of the book, details are added so that "the Shores" are transformed from a lower-middle class family into another ethnic group. Their case is then re-evaluated and adaptations to the therapeutic paradigms already outlined are discussed.
