"Addressing the critical intersection between mental health and the legal system, this book presents a competency-based approach to clinical practice with justice-involved couples and families. Author Corinne C. Datchi demonstrates that couple and family interventions are vital components of rehabilitation for both youth and adults, supporting positive family involvement and enhancing solutions to delinquency and crime. Chapters lay out essential data about juvenile and criminal justice systems, correctional populations, family systems theory, and forensic mental health issues, incorporating an understanding of these factors into the systemic assessment, case conceptualization, intervention, and treatment of clinical problems. A compelling case study brings this foundational knowledge to life, with a focus on systems thinking and scientific knowledge, and illustrates functional the competencies necessary to work effectively with couples and families in the juvenile and criminal justice system. The book outlines evidence on couple and family-focused interventions with justice-involved populations, and demonstrates how to use this information about effective therapeutic models. The volume is the first in the APA Fundamentals of Clinical Practice With Couples and Families Series that illustrates the application of specialty professional competencies in this area"--

"This book demonstrates how integrative clinical practices provide a flexible, systematic, and responsive approach to working with couples and families with complex challenges. Couples and families experience stressors of all kinds, such as infertility, blending families, infidelity, military trauma, incarceration, and sexual abuse. Complicating these already-difficult issues may be added social scrutiny due to racism, undocumented immigration, or LGBTQ status. Likewise, new technologies such as social media and data tracking, while having many positive uses, can also intensify problematic patterns. Couples and families entering treatment need a tailored clinical approach, which integrative therapies offer. Contributors to this edited book summarize current scientific knowledge about the complex clinical problems that bring couples and families to treatment, and discuss integrative couple and family therapy models. Eleven detailed case conceptualizations illustrate how practitioners and therapists use integrative models to provide care for couples and families. This roadmap of integrative treatments is for trainees as well as currently practicing psychologists, social workers, counselors, and marriage and family therapists."--
