Teaching Couples Counseling: An Integrative Model
Long, Lynn L.; Burnett, Judith A.
Family Journal Counseling and Therapy for Couples and Families, v13 n3 p321-327 Jul 2005
Traditionally, training in couples counseling has not received equal status as other counseling modalities. Recently, there is renewed interest in specific training for couples counseling as more emphasis is placed on the stability of couple relationships as an important factor for helping families and children function in a society of frequent divorce and escalating school-related violence. Similar to group work, couples counseling has emerged as a discipline that combines theoretical elements and strategies. This article describes teaching couples counseling using an integrative model that is strength-based and solution-focused and helps couples progress through distinct stages and move from the notion of "we have a problem" to "we have a solution."
