ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
No one writes a textbook like this without a lot of help, and I have had wonderful support from the very beginning, starting with Carolyn Baker, Nancy Driver, and the rest of the team at the American Counseling Association. Special thanks to Beth Ciha for copyediting the project, and also to my daughter, Alison Williams, who carefully proofread every page of this book. In many ways, this is the third edition of a textbook I wrote back in 2009. Sherry Cormier served as a developmental editor, friend, and confidant for that first edition. Her wisdom is still in every chapter. And of course, this book would never have been started without the kindness, support, and constant encouragement of Jerry Corey.
Special thanks are extended to the chapter reviewers who provided consultation and detailed critiques. Their recommendations have been incorporated into this text:
Chapters 1–4: Gerald and Marianne Corey
Chapter 4: David Kleist and I cowrote the original chapter, and Mark Young updated and improved it
Chapter 5: Jill Scharff
Chapter 6: Jon Carlson (now deceased and much missed) and Richard E. Watts
Chapter 7: Betty Carter and Monica McGoldrick
Chapter 8: Jean McLendon and John Banmen

I also want to thank the students in the couples and family counseling concentration of the Counseling Program at East Tennessee State University who gave this text an initial trial run and offered many helpful additions and corrections.
To each and every person who contributed to the completion of this book, my heartfelt thanks.
