This book offers a timely perspective on social work with families, focusing on ecobehavioural strategies that encompass extrinsic family factors such as culture, environmental exchanges and resources, and issues of social justice and oppression. Combining a unique integration of a culture-sensitive conceptual model with proven 'best practices' in family therapy, Clinical Intervention with Families will help practitioners to conceptualise and implement the most effective intervention strategies for the common issues seen in social work with families.
