It is a truism among therapists in most mental health disciplines
that the most important aspects of clinical practice are learned
only after one has left graduate school and entered "the real
world." While many of the basics could be covered in graduate
school, supervisors of new therapists often feel that the
fundamentals are only addressed in detail after a therapist has
been employed. In response to this predicament, Odell and Campbell
offer The Practical Practice of Marriage and Family Therapy: Things
My Training Supervisor Never Told Me as a useful daily guide for
graduate students and beginning marriage and family therapists that
will ease the transition from learner to practicing professional in
the clinical domain.Written in a refreshing and unpretentious
style, much the way a caring seasoned professional would mentor a
novice practitioner, The Practical Practice of Marriage and Family
Therapy covers the major areas that typical graduate programs don t
have time to address, including how to: integrate theoretical
training with pragmatic clinical practice to maximize therapeutic
effectiveness face the practical problems involving the financial
elements of clinical work become a thoroughly credentialed
professional develop an approach to becoming specialized uncover
the motivation for being a professional marriage and family
therapist increase one 's ability to maintain high-level practice
over a lifetime of work by developing coping strategies and methods
of safeguarding one 's own mental healthAddressing the unique
approach of their book, Odell and Campbell explain, "Whereas most
texts are handbooks on the actual theories and techniques used with
couples and families, this book is designed to be a guide to the
beginning professional as s/he leaves the graduate training
environment and enters the mental health field as it exists in
contemporary America. Our hope is that this book would be one of
those chosen by the novice practicing professional if s/he could
only take two or three with them into the field, as it contains
material that is most useful for everyday work in clinical
settings."
