Book The Intercultural Exeter Couples Model

Download or read book The Intercultural Exeter Couples Model written by Janet Reibstein and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increase the efficacy of your treatment interventions in intercultural couples therapy The Intercultural Exeter Couples Model: Making Connections for a Divided World Through Systemic-Behavioral Therapy provides practitioners with a thorough guide to effectively treating intercultural couples. The book consists of a systematic effort to translate systemic ideas that take into account a cultural perspective into a highly useable and practical form. The Intercultural Exeter Couples Model also attempts to marry two, often distinct, forms of practice: the systemic and the behavioral. Both approaches have much to contribute to effective couples' counselling but they are often theoretically siloed. This book demonstrates the value of using both approaches simultaneously. This book provides concrete and practical strategies for implementing systemic and behavioral approaches to intercultural couples' therapy in a manner consistent with clinical best practice. Rather than ignoring the significant and complex impacts that differing cultures can have on a relationship, The Intercultural Exeter Couple Model puts those differences front and center, encouraging the therapist to engage with the cultural mismatch that can be at the core of many couples' ongoing friction. The book's chapters tackle both the model itself and a variety of interventions, covering topics including: Teaching couples how to break patterns and prepare them to establish new ones Training couples to communicate effectively Establishing new modes of behavior in couples An explanation of empathic bridging maneuvers A description of the use of life-space explorations Perfect for clinicians, students, and professors interested in or practicing in the field of couples' therapy, The Intercultural Exeter Couples Model provides readers with an in-depth exploration of an increasingly important model of couples therapy and describes, in painstaking detail, the interventions necessary to achieve positive patient outcomes.

Book The Intercultural Exeter Model

Download or read book The Intercultural Exeter Model written by Reenee Singh and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two urgent, major and progressive themes calling ever more loudly and persistently through current developments in therapy theory, practice and training—particularly within work with families and couples. These have been: Firstly, the need to work sensitively, wisely and constructively and be attentive to differences in cultures within relationships that present in the therapy room. Secondly, is the need to become able to work within evidence-based practices that can cut across different schools of psychotherapy. That is, to be aware, or part of, a “third wave” of psychotherapy practice that unites themes and practices across formerly divided trainings. A currently well-equipped clinician should be able to employ and understand techniques and ideas from a range of therapies, using these in a way that is coherent with their basic therapeutic training and stance. A currently well-equipped clinician should be able to understand and be alert to nuances of cultural differences that will necessarily be playing out within couples and families that present for therapy, or that an individual brings in her individual narrative as it may unfold within the therapy room for individual therapy. Yet there has been no single coherent model of therapy theory, training and practice, until now, that unites these two major themes. There is still no training that can thus prepare a therapist to practice in this way. This book will train clinicians to put the Intercultural Exeter Model into everyday practice.

In addition, it explores issues and experiences in the creation of manuals, identifies research issues related to the use and evaluation of manuals, and addresses training as a context for the application of treatment manuals. Key areas of coverage include: Reports of experiences with major, internationally established manuals, formulations of innovative practices by their developers, and specifications of training programs. Discussion of the various formats of manuals, demonstrating their benefit and transportability across different contexts. Surveys of a broad selection of manuals, creating a flexible and diversified concept of what forms manuals may take. Essential guidance for using manuals, which is an indispensable step for the field to progress and to claim to health resource commissioning, governments and insurance agencies that the systemic practice is evidence based and effective.

Book Intercultural Couples

Download or read book Intercultural Couples written by Terri A. Karis and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While cross-cultural relations, and more specifically, the formation of cross-cultural couplehood, were once assumed to be inherently problematic, in recent years cross-cultural couples have increased in both numbers and social acceptance, and there is now a growing awareness of how little we really know about them. Addressing this gap in our knowledge, this volume presents 12 chapters focusing on cross-cultural couple formations (i.e., a partner from the U.S. and another from abroad). The chapters tackle a broad range of topics and issues, including systemic considerations of the phenomenon of cross-cultural couples, bilingual couples, interfaith relationships, struggles in such couple formations (e.g., differential acculturation) and different methods of approaching solutions, and the use of the internet to meet and partners from diverse backgrounds.

Book Intercultural Marriage

Download or read book Intercultural Marriage written by Dugan Romano and published by Nicholas Brealey. This book was released on 2008-08-18 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful look at the stresses and challenges of intercultural relationships - from one who has been there. Today we live in a world without borders, a global village. Distance no longer defines who we meet, fall in love with or marry. The Internet and e-mail connect people around the world in seconds. Immigration, study abroad, travel and multinational business have created a thriving cross-cultural community. But the experiences shared across cultures and countries do not always bridge the fundamental differences in beliefs and behaviors that span diverse cultures. In Intercultural Marriage, Dugan Romano delivers a "reality check" for anyone already in, or contemplating, an intercultural marriage. This insightful book interweaves lessons learned from others and suggests that the joys of an intercultural marriage often result from turning the challenges of crossing cultures into an opportunity for a fulfilling and lasting relationship. Now in its third edition, Intercultural Marriage examines the impact of cultural differences in marriage and offers practical guidelines on how to deal with the complexities they bring to a partnership. Covering such topics as raising bicultural children, religion, values, male vs. female roles, sex and social class, Romano continues to give voice to hundreds of couples she has interviewed and followed for over a decade.

Book The Lived Experience of Intercultural Couples Co creating a Third Culture

Download or read book The Lived Experience of Intercultural Couples Co creating a Third Culture written by Jennifer Yang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Members of intercultural couples can experience a range of stressors in their relationship due to cultural differences. According to the most recent United States census, these couples have a higher rate of divorce than couples whose members are from the same cultural background (U.S. Census Bureau, 2018). This dissertation explores the lived experience of intercultural couples navigating a process of third culture building, where couples come together to create shared understanding that bridges cultural differences and fortifies their relationship. Third culture building has been theorized in the fields of cross-cultural psychology (Wood, 2000), cross cultural communication (Casmir, 1993), and couples' therapy (Hsu, 2001) but has not been examined from an empirical stance. In this phenomenological dissertation, 6 qualitative interviews were conducted with intercultural couples in the San Francisco Bay Area. Participants were interviewed together as couples about their experiences navigating cultural differences. Data were analyzed using a qualitative phenomenological method. Analysis of these interviews yielded five themes: (a) couples make efforts to understand one another amidst miscommunication; (b) empathy, patience, and humility are generated; (c) couples have increased reflection about their own inherited worldviews and traits; (d) couples found strength in establishing some novel shared values; and (e) couples navigated dynamics of power and transformed hierarchies within the relationship. The discussion links the themes presented to previous theory about third culture building and provides suggestions for future research.

Book Stress and Coping Techniques in Successful Intercultural Marriages

Download or read book Stress and Coping Techniques in Successful Intercultural Marriages written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of intercultural marriages has grown significantly in the past few decades, as have the numbers of intercultural couples presenting for marital and family therapy. Current literature on intercultural relationships states that they are at a high risk for failure, with higher divorce rates and lower marital satisfaction reported than for same culture marriages. Few actual research studies have been conducted to prove or disprove these theories, and no studies have looked at how successful couples have dealt with the stressors stated in the literature such that they remain married and report high marital satisfaction. This study was an exploratory study on the stress and coping techniques successful couples have utilized in their relationships, based on the ABCX model of stress and coping. Six couples were interviewed on what stressors they have faced, what resources they have accessed and built to combat those stressors, and what their perceptions of their challenges have been.
