Medical family therapy and integrated care

"This new edition of Medical Family Therapy is a different book from its predecessor, given the many developments in the field in the 20 years since we wrote the first edition. Foundational chapters were redrafted from scratch, with older material retained only if it was equally relevant to the current clinical environment. These include the overview of the field (Chapter 1); clinical strategies (Chapter 2); collaboration (Chapter 3); health behaviors (Chapter 7); pregnancy loss, infertility, and reproductive technologies (Chapter 9); children (Chapter 10); somatizing patients (chapter 11); and caregiving and end of life (Chapter 13). New chapters include the shared experiences of illness when therapists have personal or family experience with the illness of their patient (Chapter 4), community engagement (Chapter 6), medical family therapy with couples (Chapter 8), genetics and genomics (Chapter 12), and the future of medical family therapy (Chapter 14). A new appendix profiles the practices of a number of medical family therapists"--Foreword. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2013 APA, all rights reserved).

  • "The field of medical family therapy has grown by leaps and bounds since the authors' 1st edition was published in 1992. In that book, the authors sought to bridge the gap between mental and physical health by introducing a systems-based approach that unites physicians, psychologists, family therapists, social workers, nurses, counselors, and therapists of all theoretical orientations in working with families across a wide range of professional settings. 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."
