""Books about CBT can sometimes appear formulaic, giving standard accounts of typical, successful therapies. In this book the editors have given the authors scope to craft more varied narratives of couple therapy that capture the essence of working with a variety of problems. By doing so the contributors bring alive ways of working with couples whose experience is often left out of usual training manuals, such as neurodiversity, sexual minority relationships and cross cultural issues. A chapter on separation recognises that a successful outcome of couple therapy may actually be to de-couple. This will be an invaluable resource for any therapists working within the behavioural and couple therapy framework."" Dr Stirling Moorey, MD, Retired Consultant Psychiatrist in CBT
