About Medical Family Therapy And Integrated Care
Product description In this thorough revision and update of their classic text, the authors describe the impact of recent economic and structural changes in health care on the role of the medical family therapist. They describe how medical and mental health providers can learn to speak the same language, whether they collaborate in outpatient therapy, co-location settings, community health centers, or fully-integrated health systems. They also take into account exciting new advances in fertility treatments and genomic medicine, and assess the medical family therapist’s role in navigating the unique conflicts that can arise in families dealing with these and similar issues. Review “Created to cross-reference the valuable insights of psychologists, physicians, family therapists, social workers, nurses, counselors, and therapists, Medical Family Therapy and Integrated Care examines how providers can standardize their terminology for more effective communication, and other practices to greatly improve collaborative efforts at treatment in settings ranging from community health centers to outpatient therapy or integrated health systems…Highly recommended, especially for health care professionals and college library collections.” – Midwest Book Review “Definitely the go-to book in the field of medical family therapy.” – Doody’s Review Service “McDaniel, Doherty, and Hepworth’s excellent volume results from the patient diligence of three remarkable scholars and clinicians. One can only hope that this time, 22 years later, their efforts will be appreciated and applied.” - PsycCRITIQUES® “Medical family therapy seems to have gained ground in the past decade, so this book is a welcome addition to the field and summary of some of the key approaches and ideas.
