5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Couples Therapists
As a couples therapist, I am always interested in expanding my knowledge and skills as a clinician. This book has proven to be an excellent resource for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not that interesting
When it first came out this book might have presented something new. It is overpriced and not well written. You will learn more from Susan Johnson's books that cover more ground on attachment disorders that effect couples.

By A Customer
This review is from: Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples (Hardcover)
As a couples therapist, I am always interested in expanding my knowledge and skills as a clinician. This book has proven to be an excellent resource for me. Greenberg and Johnson have written a book that is both theoretically interesting and a useful guide for practice. Their emphasis is on helping couples learn how to acknowledge and communicate their emotions to each other, and they offer a very comprehensible outline of the steps involved in working with emotions in couples therapy. This book also has excellent clinical examples which show how these ideas look in practice. Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Much Theory, July 4, 2011

Most of the book is a pretty dry dry discussion of the theory behind the general strategy. However, there is a chapter that does address the "how-to" pretty well, and this makes the book much more worthwhile to me in my practice.
