Publisher Synopsis
"The need for ways to help military families has rarely been greater, and most family therapists are oblivious to the special challenges these families face and present to the therapist. Families Under Fire is written by people who work with military families on a daily basis, and it is an invaluable resource for those of us who want to know what we are doing with this specially distressed population." - Richard C. Schwartz, developer of the Internal Family Systems model of psychotherapy and president of the Center for Self Leadership in Oak Park, Illinois, USA "This book should be on the shelf of every clinician who works with service members and their families. Everson and Figley have created a comprehensive, practical guide for applying systemic therapy with families by drawing on the experience of highly credible and knowledgeable authors. Families Under Fire is replete with sound advice, thoughtful synthesis of the most current literature, and useful principles that are easily applied to practice." - Bret A. Moore, former active-duty psychologist in the U.S. Army, two-tour veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and author of Living and Surviving in Harm's Way and The Veterans and Active Duty Military Psychotherapy Treatment Planner "This comprehensive guide makes a strong case for adopting a systems approach to the clinical care of service members, veterans, and their families. It also provides many useful and practical tools for understanding and working within the cultures of different military branches. The chapter on Marine Corps families alone is easily worth the price of the book." - William Nash, Captain, Medical Corps, United States Navy (Retired), former director of Marine Corps Combat and Operational Stress Control programs, and Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, UC San Diego, USA "Figley and Everson offer important "cover" for "families under fire"...Our military members, their families, and the clinicians who seek to help them will all benefit from this important contribution." - Thomas J. Williams, in PsycCRITIQUES Read more...
