Cultivating Systemic Resilience in Therapy

"""This valuable clinical guide expands our understanding and ways to cultivate resilience in therapy with clients who face injustice, hardship, and adversity. Chapters center marginalized peoples and their social context, sensitively attuned to their lived experience, beliefs, and aspirations. In our increasingly complex world, this systemic approach attends to the interconnection of individual, relational, family, community, cultural, and spiritual influences in overcoming adversity and flourishing in life. Highly recommended to inform and inspire both beginning and seasoned practitioners!"" Froma Walsh, PhD, Professor Emerita, University of Chicago, Co-Founder & Co-Director, Chicago Center for Family Health, Author, Strengthening Family Resilience (3rd Ed.) ""Having served as a clinical director for many years, I know my students would enjoy and benefit from this text. The book presents theories of resilience in a manner that is easy to understand and apply in diverse settings."" Martha Morgan Gobert, PhD, Associate Professor, University of Massachusetts Global ""Drs. Christie Eppler and Raquel Martin have assembled a diverse and experienced group of authors who have written about the important topic of cultivating systemic resilience in families, relationships, and individuals. As a resilience researcher, I am impressed by the depth and scope of this work and the wide range of populations and identities to which it applies. I found each chapter to be practical, and a resource for all systemic therapists."" Adrian Blow, PhD, Professor of Couple and Family Therapy, Michigan State University"
