"The Attachment-Based Focused Genogram Workbook offers a detailed, practical learning experience for clinicians who want to expand the traditional use of the genogram, applying attachment and systems theory to assessing and designing interventions for clients. The authors present useful, theory supported exercises and visual processes, helping clinician and client to collaborate in understanding complex systemic, intergenerational patterns. As an added bonus the workbook contains exercises, aiding new and experienced clinicians in self-discovery, facilitating the all-important therapeutic alliance."Theresa A. Beeton, PhD, LCSW, co-author of Assessing Family Relationships: A Family Life Space Drawing Manual"The Attachment-Based Focused Genogram Workbook is useful for any therapist interested in using visual tools to gain a focus on treatment. This workbook instructs clearly the process of determining the interconnectedness that is part of any systemic treatment. Moving beyond a summary of those simply involved in treatment, the Focused Genogram leads the clinician in a step-by-step manner into a case conceptualization that incorporates a sophisticated link to attachment theory. All students and practicing clinicians could benefit from the workbook in that it helps take copious information, and allows one to gain precise understanding of multiple dimensions in a visual format.Following the procedure laid out by Dr. Rita DeMaria, et al, will assist a therapist to reduce the complexity of clinical work and create a method to explore the dynamics of any case."Scott Browning, PhD, ABPP, professor, Department of Professional Psychology, Chestnut Hill College, Philadelphia"This workbook is a useful guide for our Couples and Family Therapy programs' practicum and internship. The authors have written in a way that engages a new generation of students and therapists, as well as clinical supervisors and researchers. The workbook provides helpful assessment tools such as the Focused Genograms, which are based predominantly on Attachment Theory and Bowen Family Systems Theory. I am confident that my students will find this required workbook beneficial as they use it alongside the textbook Focused Genograms in our Couple and Family Therapy graduate programs."Jay E. Oh, PhD, president and professor, Southern California School of Couples and Family Therapy at Daybreak University"To help couples and families develop healthier ways of relating in the here and now, clinicians must competently guide them through a journey into their past—not only the past of their relationship and of their families of origin, but also of the multiple generations that preceded them and from whom they inherited their physical and personal traits and their interactional tendencies. The Attachment-Based Focused Genogram Workbook is the essential guidebook to help therapists unmask and dissect that deeper past, bringing about understanding of the historical forces that underlie their clients' present relationship problems and thereby making liberation from those difficulties possible. No therapist should attempt the demanding work of couple or family therapy without it!"Mo Therese Hannah, PhD, professor of psychology, Siena College; advanced clinician in Imago Relationship Therapy; New York State licensed psychologist
