Читать книгу Theory and Practice of Couples and Family Counseling - James Robert Bitter - Страница 61

A former student of both Joseph Wolpe and Aaron Beck, Frank Dattilio (2010) has centered his cognitive behavioral scholarship and practice in work with couples and families. Others practicing cognitive behavioral family counseling, like Norman Epstein and Donald Baucom, also address the emotional dynamics of couples and families, but it is really Dattilio who brings a systemic focus to family interventions, starting with an assessment of cognitive schema in families of origin, acknowledging the importance of attachment theory and the neurobiology of the mind, and bringing cognitive behavioral interventions into mutually sustainable interactions and family patterns.
