Now updated to reflect the n ew Ethical Code An examination of the 2012 Code of Ethics of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. Developed for students, educators, supervisors, and practitioners alike, this text examines the significant classical and contemporary issues in marriage and family therapy. The text opens with a thoughtful discussion of client and therapist worldviews, value sensitive care, the ecology of therapy, and commonalities between personal and professional acculturation.
