Description
Relationship Enhancement Therapy (RE) is a couples-therapy system that combines various psychological theories to help couples improve their relationship. It was created by Bernard Guerney Jr. and is based on the client-centered theory of Carl Rogers, the interpersonal theory of Henry Stack Sullivan, the behavior modification and learning theories of Skinner and Bandura, and the psychodynamic theory of Freud. In this book, Dr. Scuka provides a comprehensive guide to implementing the principles of RE, with a focus on couples therapy but also acknowledging its relevance to family therapy. The book covers a range of topics, including special therapy techniques, the clinical intake process, treating affairs, working with difficult clients, and addressing family therapy issues such as domestic violence and stepfamilies. It is designed to be accessible for therapists of all levels of experience, but also goes beyond a simple "cookbook" approach by discussing various aspects of RE in depth.
Relationship Enhancement Therapy (RE) is a couples-therapy system conceived of, designed, and first implemented by Bernard Guerney Jr., who integrated the client-centered theory of Carl Rogers, the interpersonal theory of Henry Stack Sullivan, the behavior modification and learning theories of Skinner and Bandura, and the psychodynamic theory of Freud, in formulating RE. In this book Dr. Scuka presents an up-to-date, comprehensive theoretical and practical treatment of RE, in which he gives the reader a guide to implementing the principles of this dynamic theory. The book is written principally with couples therapy in mind, although there is an acknowledged relevance to family therapy, and the author calls attention the many skills and therapy techniques that would be applicable to family therapy. Though designed to allow a therapist of any level of experience to begin working with the RE model, this book is more than a standard cookbook, as it considers a variety of special RE therapy techniques, discusses the entire clinical intake process, the application of the RE model to the treatment of affairs, use with difficult clients, and family therapy issues such as domestic violence and stepfamilies.
